Blue Shark Power China 1
Blue Shark Power System, designer and assembler of new generation tidal turbines, announces the signing of a strategic order with a leading Chinese energy player, under the aegis of the NOTC, a Chinese state body. Made up of a pillar fixed to the ground and two innovative turbines, the Blue Shark River tidal turbine can produce up to 700 kW/h 99% of the time. Blue Shark Power System intends to deploy its tidal turbines in partnership with energy operators throughout the world, with action initially directed towards identified emerging countries and offering water geography that is particularly favorable to hydroelectricity production. “This order by a leading operator in China demonstrates the relevance of the technological, ecological and economic breakthrough that our tidal turbines bring. This export success precedes large-scale contracts in other regions of the world in search of accessible, reliable and environmentally friendly electricity."
