Scotland’s Orbital O2, currently the world's most powerful floating tidal turbine, is leading a new era of clean, predictable energy from the ocean. Stationed at the European Marine Energy Centre in Orkney, this massive 74-meter-long structure harnesses some of the world's strongest currents to provide a stable alternative to weather-dependent renewables. The Orbital O2 features a unique "gull wing" leg design that allows its two 1-megawatt nacelles to be raised to the water's surface for easy,

In Scotland we are playing our part in tackling climate change and supporting the global transition away from fossil fuels. 🌊 One company helping turn the tide on climate change is Orbital Marine Power, based in Orkney. Their pioneering floating turbine technology can supply predictable, clean power from tidal streams and ocean currents, every day, regardless of the weather. Orbital’s 2MW O2, the world’s most powerful and advanced tidal turbine, is a boldly innovative piece of awesome engineeri
