Circling the square

The world’s first circular wave and tidal current test facility is using a package of ABB electrical and control equipment – including servo drives and low voltage variable-speed drives – to simulate energetic sea-states typically found in British, European and international waters.

The £10.3 million facility is designed to test wave and tidal energy projects, offshore wind structures, and other marine technologies
