Turbine tidal tide is the strongest in the world

One of the strongest underwater tidal turbine projects applied for successful capital from the European Union’s innovation fund (EU). NH1 project of the Normandie Hydroliennes tidal energy developer in France receives a budget of US $ 34.06 million from the fund. This amount will promote NH1, one of the first pilot projects of commercial tidal energy in France, increasing the production of renewable electricity in the sea. The project is aimed at installing 4 horizontal turbines in Normandy, providing 34 GWH annually for the French grid by 2028, according to Interesting Engineering.

The EU has chosen the pilot farm of the NH1 tidal energy to provide funds from the innovative fund, the program to support carbon -containing low -containing gas technologies. NH1 is among 85 projects selected based on the potential of reducing greenhouse gases, creativity, completion, economic expansion and economic feasibility.

Located in the Strait of Alderney Race, NH1 will include 4 Turbine AR3000 3 MW, producing 33.9 GWH annually, enough to provide 15,000 households. Expected to start operating at the end of 2027, the project highlights the role of tide energy as a competitive and reliable renewable power source. According to Normandie Hydroliennes, the Alderney Race Strait provides up to 5 GW of tide potential, NH1 represents an important step in the transition to France’s clean energy.

Developed by Proteus Marine Renewables, Turbine AR3000 is the world’s strongest turbine turbine and competitive in price in electricity production. According to Normandie Hydroliennes, Turbine is being manufactured in France and assembled at Efinor factory in Cherbourg.

Although wind and solar power help reduce the dependence on fossil fuels, their fluctuations lead to the need for more stable renewable energy sources. Due to the gravity of the moon, it creates an easy -to -predict tide in the ocean, the tidal energy provides a power source that can be based on. In 2030, the cost of producing tidal electricity is expected to be equivalent to floating wind power. Turbine tidal is very environmentally friendly, less affecting the marine environment and recycling simply when the end of the life cycle.

The tidal electric farms are completely submerged in the water, so it does not affect the vision, noise and life in the sea. After 5 years, the tidal electricity industry in France will create 6,000 new jobs, promote the local economy and the independence of the country.
