WOKING, Surrey, UK – Tadek Ocean Engineering says that it is delivering a broad package of support to Spanish tidal energy developer Magallanes Renovables, as it prepares to deploy the world’s first tidal energy array.
Magallanes is an offshore renewable energy developer that is focused on the development and commercialization of floating tidal energy systems.
Magallanes secured two contracts in CfD allocation rounds – the first at the Morlais Demonstration Zone, in North Wales, where it will install two 1.5MW tidal energy platforms, adding 3MW to the 6MW secured in 2022. The second project will take place at EMEC in Scotland where the company has its UK base and plans to install a 1.5MW tidal energy array.
Tadek founder and CEO Rupert Raymond says that his firm is currently supporting Magallanes with detailed design involving cables, installation and mooring systems.
