The turbine test site at the Cape Cod Canal in Bourne. has been awarded an eight-year pilot license by the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission to test marine renewable tidal turbines at the Bourne Tidal Test Site at the Cape Cod Canal.
The Collaborative's Executive Director John Miller tells CAI tides in Massachusetts waters have great potential to produce electricity. The Collaborative is a non-profit corporation dedicated to the sustainable development of ocean renewable energy. It owns and manages the test facility in the canal and private developers bring their turbines to the facility for testing.
"The blades on these things, because they are in water, move relatively slowly compared to wind turbines, and animals in the water are used to having things around them that move at that speed. Despite millions of dollars of testing. worldwide there has been absolutely no impact on fish or marine mammals."
