Great to see this turbine emerge from its assembly facility. The turbine was already fitted with the main gearbox drive designed and supplied by Involution Technologies and now it boasts a new yaw and pitch system designed by Involution in collaboration with Proteus Marine Renewables and supplied by Involution and DePe Gear Company Can’t wait to see this epic tidal turbine back in the water.
Making tidal a reality in Japan As the AR1100 turbine emerges from the assembly shed, we are reaching another key milestone in our mission to bring sustainable tidal power to the region! In just under two months, our team will be ready to install and commission the AR1100 turbine in the Naru Straights, Japan. Over the past year, we’ve been hard at work upgrading the turbine and equipping it with advanced features like our latest pitch and yaw systems. Once operational, our tidal turbine will produce 1.1MW of clean energy to power the local Goto Islands, supporting Japan’s commitment to renewable energy. We're excited to see AR1100 take its place in the Naru Straights, demonstrating how tidal energy can contribute to building a cleaner, more resilient energy future for Japan. 🎄 And as the year comes to a close, we want to take a moment to thank all our partners, supporters, and everyone following our journey. Wishing you all a happy festive season and a wonderful start to the new year! #TidalEnergy #RenewableEnergy #Japan #CleanEnergy #Sustainability #GotoIslands #MarineEnergy Drew Blaxland Ryan Biggs Philip Archer
