The O2 tidal turbines, developed by Orbital Marine Power, harness the energy of tidal currents to generate renewable electricity. Installed in the Orkney Islands, the O2 is one of the most powerful tidal turbines in the world, with a capacity of up to 2 MW. Its floating, seabed-anchored design reduces environmental impact and simplifies maintenance and installation. This technology offers an innovative and sustainable solution for clean energy production from the sea.
Le turbine mareomotrici O2, sviluppate da Orbital Marine Power, sfruttano l’energia delle correnti di marea per generare elettricità rinnovabile. Installata nelle isole Orcadi, la turbina O2 è una delle più potenti al mondo, con una capacità fino a 2 MW. Il sistema galleggiante, ancorato al fondale, consente un impatto ambientale ridotto e facilita manutenzione e installazione. Questa tecnologia rappresenta una soluzione innovativa e sostenibile per la produzione di energia pulita dal mare.
