SAE successfully re-deploys world's most powerful tidal
turbine
SAE is pleased to announce the successful re-deployment of its
AR1500, 1.5MW turbine, at its MeyGen site. The turbine has been out
of the water for upgrade and maintenance work. It is now back
generating green, predictable electricity, with no visual
impact.
The MeyGen site is the largest fully consented tidal stream site
in the world and SAE is continuing to work with Government and
industry partners to unlock its full potential, delivering a 400MW
green and predictable power station.
With two of the four turbines now fully operational SAE is
continuing work on the re-deployment of the other turbines, which
are out the water for maintenance and repair, and expect them to be
back in the water within the next 12 months.
SAE CEO, Graham Reid, commented:
"I am extremely proud of the team and all the work that went in
to ensure this successful re-deployment. This is another milestone
that demonstrates that the industry is continuing to learn and
develop, and I am delighted that our turbine is back where it
belongs. Our ambition is to deliver more turbines in the water for
the benefit of our business, our economy and the planet and we
continue our work in collaboration with Government and the industry
to deliver this."
