Unveiling a coordinated strategic plan to accelerate the development of offshore wind energy, Secretary of the Interior Ken Salazar and Secretary of Energy Steven Chu announced major steps forward in support of offshore wind energy in the United States, including new funding opportunities for up to $50.5 million for projects that support offshore wind energy deployment and several high priority wind energy areas in the mid-Atlantic that will spur rapid, responsible development of this abundant renewable resource.
Three major research and development projects that will help to develop the wave and tidal stream energy technologies of the future are set to benefit from government investment of over £2.5 million ($4 million U.S. dollars).
The Canoe Pass Tidal Energy Consortium is proposing to construct and operate the Canoe Pass Tidal Energy Project at a site located about 14 kilometres (km) north of Campbell River, British Columbia (BC), Canada. The Project will involve the installation of two 250 kilowatt (kW) vertical-axis hydrokinetic turbines in a new pile-supported turbine support structure constructed in the narrow channel between Quadra and Maud Islands. The Project also involves the re-establishment of natural tidal flow through the channel by removal of fill from an existing man-made causeway constructed in the 1940s
