Master Plan P. Firth

Pentland Firth Tidal Master Plan, Caithness, UK

The Pentland Firth is arguably one of the best concentrated tidal resources on earth. Estimates of the energy potential in this few square kilometres range from 2GW to 8GW. An objective has been set by public sector agencies and the Scottish Government to harness 1300MW of tidal energy in the Pentland Firth by 2020.

A pre-feasibility study has been prepared by Tocardo BV Tidal Energy to identify the tasks required for a Tidal Master Plan Study, which will be the route-map for the accelerated, large scale tidal energy development of the Pentland Firth.
