Fabrication has been completed on the operational model of the Subhub at Pentland Precision Engineering, allowing QED Naval to begin the pre-testing setup of the device.
The Subhub is a foundation structure for wave and tidal turbines, which commissions, tests, transports, installs, and secures a mini array of wave and tidal turbines to the seabed.
Over the next week the team at QED will be carrying out pre-testing preparations fitting extensive instrumentation and ballast systems to gain the most out of the coming testing phase.
