The four cables, with a combined length of 11 kilometres, have a total capacity of 64 megawatts, equivalent to the power needs of 20,000 homes at peak tidal flows.
The goal of this group is to improve communication between students involved in tidal energy research, regardless of the degree they’re working toward. We want to help students share their research, their ideas, and their experiences with other students. We also want to help students find opportunities through industry and government connections, and through connections with each other.
