Tidal turbine

Any news worthy story. Good things to watch at the Cinema, Theatre, on TV or have you read a good book lately?

Great that its finally connected - we've got an investment in this through Abundance.

I know there were some naysayers on ‘another’ forum - be really encouraging if it delivers. Having the connection must be a major step forward.

Good to see this finally working for real. 2MW isn't to be sniffed at. I wonder how many hours a day it'll generate the 2MW and I wonder how that varies by season? I guess tidal would be much less fickle than Solar or wind. We'd need to scale up significantly to make a notable impact on energy mix though.

3x 380W JA Solar panels (1.14kWp)
5x 2.4kWh Pylontech batteries (12kWh)
