This noval approach to power extraction uses the principle of a kite, achored to the seabed to extract power from the onboard turbine. The wing uses the hydrodynamic lift force created by the underwater current to move the kite. With an onboard control system, the kite is autonomously steered in a predetermined figure-of-eight trajectory, pulling the turbine through the water at a water flow several times higher than the actual stream speed.<\/p><p class=\"MsoNormal\" style=\"margin: 0cm 0cm 8pt;line-height: 15.693333625793457px;font-size: 11pt;font-family: Calibri, sans-serif;color: #000000;font-style: normal;letter-spacing: normal\">The turbine shaft turns the generator which outputs electricity to the grid via a power cable in the tether and a seabed umbilical to the shore.<\/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<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-50 elementor-top-column elementor-element elementor-element-0786067\" data-id=\"0786067\" data-element_type=\"column\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-a5c8ae8 elementor-widget elementor-widget-image\" data-id=\"a5c8ae8\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"image.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<figure class=\"wp-caption\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"321\" height=\"261\" src=\"https:\/\/wp.nuvola.co.uk\/ourtide-staging\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/20\/2023\/09\/Figure4.png\" class=\"attachment-large size-large wp-image-1409\" alt=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/wp.nuvola.co.uk\/ourtide-staging\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/20\/2023\/09\/Figure4.png 321w, https:\/\/wp.nuvola.co.uk\/ourtide-staging\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/20\/2023\/09\/Figure4-300x244.png 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 321px) 100vw, 321px\" \/>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<figcaption class=\"widget-image-caption wp-caption-text\">Minesto Dragon Kite<\/figcaption>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/figure>\n\t\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\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<section class=\"elementor-section elementor-top-section elementor-element elementor-element-1226088 elementor-section-boxed elementor-section-height-default elementor-section-height-default\" data-id=\"1226088\" data-element_type=\"section\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-container elementor-column-gap-default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-50 elementor-top-column elementor-element elementor-element-1f27950\" data-id=\"1f27950\" data-element_type=\"column\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-d83e532 elementor-widget elementor-widget-image\" data-id=\"d83e532\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"image.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<figure class=\"wp-caption\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"348\" height=\"347\" src=\"https:\/\/wp.nuvola.co.uk\/ourtide-staging\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/20\/2023\/09\/Figure5-1.png\" class=\"attachment-large size-large wp-image-1414\" alt=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/wp.nuvola.co.uk\/ourtide-staging\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/20\/2023\/09\/Figure5-1.png 348w, https:\/\/wp.nuvola.co.uk\/ourtide-staging\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/20\/2023\/09\/Figure5-1-300x300.png 300w, https:\/\/wp.nuvola.co.uk\/ourtide-staging\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/20\/2023\/09\/Figure5-1-150x150.png 150w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 348px) 100vw, 348px\" \/>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<figcaption class=\"widget-image-caption wp-caption-text\">Proteus Series AR 1500 Turbine [9]<\/figcaption>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/figure>\n\t\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<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-50 elementor-top-column elementor-element elementor-element-91033b4\" data-id=\"91033b4\" data-element_type=\"column\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-79da41d elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"79da41d\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p class=\"MsoNormal\" style=\"margin: 0cm 0cm 8pt;line-height: 15.693333625793457px;font-size: 11pt;font-family: Calibri, sans-serif;color: #000000;font-style: normal;letter-spacing: normal\"><b>Proteus<\/b>\u00a0[4] are continuing advancements of their AR Series Turbine through TIGER.
