Default Humber Tidal Energy

Experimental tidal power system for the Humber!
A whopping 0.15MW! Don't think we'll be relying on it just yet

Indeed.
Up to 0.15MW.
And is that capacity of average output?

Looks like its capacity!
Although to be fair, its just a prototype, and hope to do 1MW units in the future.
