Cobscook Bay Tidal Energy Project



In 2012, following FERC approval, ORPC began the Maine Tidal Energy Project by installing a commercial TidGen™ Power System in Cobscook Bay. After running and monitoring this initial system for a year, we will install additional power systems over the ensuing three years to increase the project's output to up to 5 megawatts-enough electricity to power 1,200 Maine homes and businesses with clean tidal energy.
