The Minas Passage has approximately 7,000 megawatts.
HUG TIDAL POWER SYSTEM
The HUG TIDAL POWER SYSTEM is attached under a barge for easy access for maintenance purposes.
This barge reverses the direction to face both the ebb and flow of the tide by using an ingenious underwater kite.
Many attempts to capture tidal energy failed.
Others used heavy propellors that required costly maintenance.
