Big is about to get beautiful now; the Scottish government has approved the ScottishPower Renewables’s grandiose plan of a £40 million mega tidal turbine project, off the west coast of Scotland in Sound of Islay. It is already touted that this 10 MW facility will generate enough electricity for more than 5000 dwellings, which by the way is double the present number of homes in Islay.
The defining virtue of tidal energy for production of clean power has still not been realized to its full potential. But this utterly grand scheme will take a rather huge step forward in elucidating that fact, and additionally cause the economic and environmental betterment of these coastal communities.
