Haineng I 300 kW tidal turbine

The 70 kW Wanxiang-I floating vertical-axis turbine was developed in 1996, and then the 40 kW Wanxiang-II bottom fixed vertical-axis turbine was developed in 2002. In the support of the special fund program for ocean energy, HEU developed the Haineng series tidal turbines and deployed them in Daishan sea area. For example, the vertical-axis Haineng I with two 150 kW turbines in one platform was developed and tested since 2012. The efficiency is about 30%.
