Marine energy technology company Minesto looks at Wales for commercial installations of ‘underwater kite’ power plants Erneuerbare & Ökologie Forschungs-Mitteilungen Technik 10. September 2013 Werbung (WK-intern) - Gothenburg, Sweden - Nordic marine energy technology leader Minesto, has identified Wales as a possible location for a full-scale deployment of its marine power plant Deep Green. Deep Green is the only known marine power plant in the world that is able to cost effectively produce electricity from low velocity tidal and ocean currents. Welsh waters are very rich in low velocity tidal currents. Minesto has identified the Welsh waters as a candidate for a full-scale deployment of Deep Green after extensive measurements of the sea conditions carried out by SEACAMS, a Welsh research project that offers marine businesses
