As Goes Maine? A Tidal Energy Project Powers Up

Season 2013

Maine company deploys nation’s first commercial, grid connected tidal energy project.

Water power - including conventional hydropower and new technologies like ORPC’s tidal turbine - is estimated to nearly double by 2030 and provide an estimated 15% of the total domestic electricity supply.
