Renewable Energy From The Moon Is Happening Right Now

A new renewable energy test bed in Massachusetts will help scale up tidal energy devices from the test tank to the open water .

The license provides the Marine Renewable Energy Collaborative with the seal of approval for a testing its tidal energy system at the Bourne Tidal Test Site. “BTTs provides tidal turbine developers an unmatched capability for testing prototypes up to 3 meters in diameter,” Miller explained. “It is also more cost effective costing as little as $30,000 for a test versus several million at full scale sites. The BTTS offers testing at Technology Readiness Level of 5/6, partial scale in relevant conditions, at a secure and easily accessible site,” the organization adds.If you caught that thing about technology readiness, that refers to a system of assessing the maturity of a particular technology. An initial observation of principles gets a rating of 1.

In an interesting twist, BTTS was the location of a tidal energy experiment that took place 30 years ago, involving an innovative new turbine developed at Northwestern University. “That technology has been commercialized and is being deployed in Alaska and exported to Chile. Its time for the next generation and we are ready,” Miller wrote.has also been eyeballing tidal energy as a means of providing remote communities in other parts of the nation with a reliable source of renewable energy.

One project will be located in a remote area of the Cook Inlet in Alaska, which the Energy Department has determined is the single largest tidal energy resource in the US. The other project will take place in Rosario Strait, in the San Juan Islands area of Washington State.
