Tidal Energy showed promise in the latest testing for helping remote locations and their microgrids.

Happy Tuesday!

We have an update from our Blog from February 2024 on tidal energy.  Did anyone happen to read the Oil & Gas Journal’s Energy Transition Update Newsletter on April 2, 2026, their article titled, “Swedish Tidal Energy Achieves Microgrid Generation at Remote Faroe Islands”?  In the article, it speaks on how Minesto, a Swedish renewable company, installed another tidal energy and microgrid project for Faroe Island which received funding from the Swedish government has results for its Dragon 4 power plant.  The project was able to produce 100 KW from tidal energy which is less than their Dragon 12 (we blogged on it in 2024), nonetheless it showed them this is a viable option for making electric for hard to access locations.  We will let you know, if we hear anything else on this emission lowering tech!  If you would like to read more of the Oil & Gas Journal’s article, please click the link: Swedish Tidal Energy Startup Achieves Microgrid Generation at Remote Faroe Island |Microgrid Knowledge.   

Don’t forget to check out our ESC website or contact us via the email in the Blog, if you have a hydrocarbon liquids project you would like to see get off the ground or you would like to see what’s under your feet to help with your emissions!  

We hope you have a wonderful evening!
