<p>A plurality of dc output generators (2) are positioned on the seabed such that,when a tidal current flows, turbines of the generators (2) are caused to turn and this motion is employed for the generation of dc power. A tidal energy farm (1) comprises a matrix of twenty-five such generators (2), which are arranged in five strings A to E, each string comprising five generators (2) connected electrically in series. Each generator (2) is a 2.5MW generator, generating a maximum voltage of 5Kv at a maximum current of 500 amps. The outputs of all of the strings A to E are connected in parallel to a positive output cable (3) and a negative output cable (4). Thus, the maximum output power on the cables (3) and (4) is 25 Kv at 2500 amps - that is, a total of 62.5 MW.</p> |
