Climate Underwater turbine spinning for 6 years off Scotland's coast is a breakthrough for tidal energy In this October 2018 photo provided by MeyGen, tidal turbines are visible at the MeyGen tidal site located in the Inner Sound of the Pentland Firth, a narrow channel of water between the Scottish mainland and Stroma Island. (Fraser Johnson/MeyGen, via AP) In this October 2018 photo provided by MeyGen, tidal turbines are visible at the MeyGen tidal site located in the Inner Sound of the Pentland Firth, a narrow channel of water between the Scottish mainland and Stroma Island. (Fraser Johnson/MeyGen, via AP) [] By JENNIFER McDERMOTT Updated [hour]:[minute] [AMPM] [timezone], [monthFull] [day], [year] Share Share * Facebook * Copy Link copied * Print * Email * X * LinkedIn * Bluesky * Flipboard * Pinterest * Reddit Submerged in about 40 meters (44 yards) of water off Scotland's coast, a turbine has been spinning for more than six years to harness the power of ocean tides for electricity -- a durability mark that demonstrates the technology's commercial viability. Keeping a large, or grid-scale, turbine in place in the harsh sea environment that long is a record that helps pave the way for bigger tidal energy farms and makes it far more appealing to investors, according to the trade association Ocean Energy Europe. Tidal energy projects would be prohibitively expensive if the turbines had to be taken out of the water for maintenance every couple of years. Tidal energy technologies are still in the early days of their commercial development, but their potential for generating clean energy is big. According to the National Renewable Energy Laboratory, marine energy, a term researchers use to refer to power generated from tides, currents, waves or temperature changes, is the world's largest untapped renewable energy resource. The MeyGen tidal energy project off the coast of Scotland has four turbines producing 1.5 megawatts each, enough electricity collectively to power up to 7,000 homes annually. On Thursday, the Swedish company SKF announced that its bearings and seals on one of the turbines had passed the 6 1/2-year mark without needing unplanned or disruptive maintenance. It has been working closely with the industry for a decade on design and testing.

(AP Photo/Charlie Riedel, File) Here's what to know about clean energy in Republican megabill headed to Trump Achieving six years in the water with constant operations is a "very significant milestone" that bodes well for the future of tidal energy, said Remi Gruet, CEO of Ocean Energy Europe. Scotland and the United Kingdom are global leaders in tidal energy. The MeyGen site, operated by SAE Renewables, has been sending electricity to the grid for about eight years. There are very few tidal energy projects generating electricity continuously. Most have been tests and demonstrations, said Andrea Copping, an expert in marine renewable energy development. Copping said there are still large hurdles to overcome before tidal energy can be adopted more widely, such as dealing with regulatory issues, potential environmental effects and conflicts with other ocean users. Still, the Scotland project seems to have addressed the question of whether the turbines can last in seawater, added Copping, a distinguished faculty fellow in the School of Marine and Environmental Affairs at the University of Washington. "I think they have checked the boxes," she said. "Because skeptics, and that includes investors of course and governments, said, 'How on Earth are you going to operate these things especially for any length of time in this very tough environment?' And that's what I think they proved." It's very hard to take what is essentially a wind turbine normally found on land and put it under water, said Fraser Johnson, operations and maintenance manager at MeyGen. The record-setting turbine should keep going for at least another year before it needs to come out of the water for maintenance, he added. The four turbines are in the Inner Sound of the Pentland Firth, a narrow channel between the Scottish mainland and Stroma Island known for strong tidal currents. Tidal energy systems need strong currents to make electricity efficiently. MeyGen plans to add 20 turbines in 2030 to produce more electricity, after needed upgrades to the electricity grid are finished. The site could eventually hold as many as 130 turbines that are more powerful than those at the site today. The MeyGen site is in the open water, while another type of tidal project involves creating a dam-like structure called a barrage across tidal waters. With four turbines, MeyGen is considered the largest tidal energy project of its kind worldwide, said Johnson. "It's a title we wish we didn't have. We want more, we want others," he said. "Unfortunately others are having difficulty achieving what MeyGen has achieved. But working with SKF moving forward, we'll push the industry forward." ___ The Associated Press' climate and environmental coverage receives financial support from multiple private foundations.
