In summer 2024 we measured the tidal stream flow at the pier head for one lunar cycle using a state of the art Acoustic Doppler Velocimeter (ADV) loaned by Swansea University. These measurements are a vital first step to designing a tidal stream turbine for this location. The tidal measurements are available for all to access here<\/a>.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

In the academic year 2024\/2025, five Swansea University students conducted their final year project by designing a tidal stream turbine for installation under the pier head.<\/p>

The picture to the right shows the five students with their poster displayed as part of their final year project, and the poster is shown below.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t
