First three-month milestone of trouble-free Dragon 12 testing reached - generating valuable data on performance and robustness
Early
"With the generated test data at hand, we can now conclude that
Moreover, the large Dragon 12 (1.2 MW) is accompanied by a smaller Dragon 4 (100kW) in the Vestmanna strait, which means that two systems are installed and grid-connected in parallel. The world's first mini array of tidal energy kites is in operation.
Operating two systems in parallel contributes to new ways of verification and learning in core areas, such as kite-park design, product range modularity and performance optimization.
With two systems installed,
"It is both satisfactory and vital to see that the February installation of Dragon 12 has resulted in a three-month period of successful production testing. Our major investments in a full-scale D12 powerplant and extensive test-site infrastructure delivers full value in generating production data that show evidence of commercial readiness. This is crucial technical data that our partners and site project investors have been asking for and we now are providing to reduce perceived risks in multiple ongoing sales and project investment-dialogues," said Dr
