Company/Organization - Tidal Electric
Technology/Plant Name - Offshore Tidal Lagoons
Technology Genre - Tidal Barrage
Power take-off system – Unspecified
The United Kingdom has the second highest tidal range in the world and a strong
commitment to renewable source power. The total potential capacity of power from U.K.
tides using the offshore tidal generation technology is roughly 8000 MW.
Technology - Tidal Lagoons
Environmental Considerations
Offshore tidal power generation resolves the environmental and economic problems of the
barrage system and puts tidal power generation back amongst the choices for commercialscale renewable power generation. Rather than blocking an estuary with a barrage, offshore
tidal power generators use an impoundment structure, making it completely self-contained
and independent of the shoreline (visualize a circular dam, built on the seabed), thereby
eliminating the environmental problems associated with blocking off and changing the
shoreline. Migratory fish simply swim around the structure[i] and ships and boats navigate
past the structure. The optimal site for offshore tidal power generation is the shallow water
of near-shore areas, while shipping lanes require deeper water. The offshore siting is the
distinctive characteristic of the design and one of the fundamental claims of its patents[ii].
Turbines are situated in a powerhouse that is contained in the impoundment structure and
is always underwater. Power is transmitted to shore via underground/underwater cables and
connected to the grid. The structure need not be more than a few yards beyond the low tide
level and the optimal site is one that is as shallow as possible, thereby minimizing the cost of
building the impoundment wall.
Tidal Barrage
Impoundment Wall
The impoundment structure is a conventional rubble mound breakwater, with ordinary
performance specifications and is built from the most economical materials. In the event of a
failure of the structure, the consequences do not include safety issues or collateral property
damage. The most likely cause of a failure would be a strong nearby earthquake and the
most likely type of damage would be a breach of the impoundment structure. Thus, the
principle consequence of failure would be economic (temporary interruption of service)
and, therefore, economics are the primary driver in choosing the materials[iii] and
construction method.
Building a complete impoundment structure offshore may seem to be more expensive than
building a relatively short barrage which uses the natural contours of the existing shoreline
to do most of the containment “work.” The barrage is much shorter than an impoundment
structure with the same output capacity, but the barrage is a much larger structure. The cost
per unit output of the offshore tidal power generator is less than that of the barrage for the
following reasons:
· Depth
· Load Factor
· Efficiency
· Generation Equipment

SeaGen is by far the largest and most
powerful tidal turbine in the world with
twin rotors each sweeping over 200 square
metres of flow. It also uses the most efficient
type of turbine rotors, namely axial flow
pitch controlled rotors, the technology of
choice in the wind industry. As such
SeaGen's rotors can achieve over 48%
efficiency over a broad range of current
velocities and they also offer complete
control over the machine - it can be shut
down in less than three seconds even with
the current at full flow. More details follow.

Evopod, a semi-submerged, floating, and tethered energy capture device for offshore oil and
gas, and marine industries in Scotland and the United Kingdom. Ocean Flow Energy Ltd. was

Tidal Current Technologies
Evopod is a device for generating electricity from free flowing tidal streams, river
estuaries and ocean currents. It is a unique floating solution drawing upon proven
technologies used in the offshore oil and gas and marine industries.
Evopod uses a simple but effective mooring system that allows the free floating device to
maintain optimum heading into the tidal stream. It can be accessed by boat for first line
maintenance and has been developed specifically to address the need for a tidal current
device that can operate in exposed deep water sites where severe wind and waves also
make up the environment.
Evopod’s key discriminators are:
 Designed for efficient operation in exposed sea areas where waves coexist with tidal
current.
 Can be easily disconnected from its mooring system and removed off-site for
maintenance in safe non-tidal sheltered areas.
 Does not require long duration, expensive and risky installation operations as required
for fixed seabed mounted devices.
 Maximises use of off-the-shelf components from commercial shipping and wind power
industries.

that extracts energy from moving masses of water, in particular tides, although the term
is often used in reference to machines designed to extract energy from run of river or

underwater wind turbines, and are thus often referred to as tidal turbines.

The challenge of renewable energy has been one of technology and of economics. It’s
about

Bristol-based Embley Energy is developing marine energy technology that uses
advanced concrete construction methods for lightness and durability.
The company hopes to show that its wave-energy converter (WEC) Sperboy can
compete with fossil fuels and other renewable energy sources. The buoy-like Sperboy
uses the oscillating water column principle to generate power from wave action. As the
buoy moves up and down on the waves, air is displaced from a chamber within it which
then drives turbine-generators situated above.
The team is using laminated concrete composites to lighten the unit and make it more
cost-efficient. Also, concrete was chosen because at sea it far outlasts steel or similar
materials.
Ocean Wave Technologies
'The sole aim of the project is to develop a renewable source of energy which is
affordable,' said Embley's Michael Burrett. 'The machine is very simple, with only one
moving part, the turbines, and they are above the water line. This reduces the cost and,
more importantly, enhances reliability and helps maintenance. With the devices as they
are we do not envisage having to go back to maintain them at all,' he said.
'The concept has been proven. The biggest challenge now is making the device
commercially viable and reducing the mass.'
According to Embley, it is the reduction in weight and maintenance that will
dramatically reduce the normally prohibitive cost of marine energy generation. The
absence of large quantities of invasive products such as oils and lubricants, coupled
with minimal impact on seabed ecosystems, also makes the device more
environmentally friendly.
Sperboys are to be used in large deepwater arrays containing around 750 devices
deployed eight to 12 miles offshore. This will create an offshore windfarm covering an
area of nearly six square miles (15 sq km).
The devices, which are expected to have a lifespan of around 50 years, will have an
average weight of between 3,500 and 4,500 tonnes and are expected to generate over
250MW.
