Canada’s test center for in-stream tidal energy technology FORCE has secured a power cable to a barge as part of its trials in the Minas Passage in Bay of Fundy, Canada. FORCE is performing a series of marine trials to support the deployment of up to four underwater power cables in the near future.
The benefits associated with doubling the operating voltage of inter-array systems for large scale wind farms from 33kV to 66kV is widely understood, particularly as the industry strives to lower the costs associated with larger turbines. Despite the obvious benefits, developers currently lack the c
Canada’s test center for in-stream tidal energy technology FORCE is now mobilizing to conduct a series of marine trials this week. A number of vessels will be involved, including barges and tugs, maneuvering and holding station. These trials support the deployment of up to four underwater power cabl
