01/02/08 Aquascientific challenges the Severn Barrage Project.

Recent successful trials of prototypes have suggested that the MRev concept is ideally suited to deployment in estuaries and shallow water. With its minimal infrastructure, low environmental impact and ability to be deployed incrementally, we are now commissioning research into a comparative study as an alternative to the Severn Barrage Project. We expect to test our first MRev Estuarine Turbine at Exmouth in the Exe Estuary later this year.
