Jobs Up for Grabs at Orbital Marine Power

Orbital Marine Power is currently recruiting for a variety of positions within the company.

The Scottish engineering firm focused on the development of a tidal energy turbine technology is looking for a Procurement Officer, Finance Officer, Office Administrator and Electrical Technician.

Formerly Scotrenewables Tidal Power, Orbital Marine has recently secured £7-million funding to build its first production model Orbital O2 2MW floating tidal turbine platform.

The company plans to build the turbine over the next 12 months, for deployment at Orkney’s European Marine Energy Centre (EMEC) during 2020.

The Orbital O2 turbine comprises a 73 meters-long floating superstructure, supporting two 1MW turbines on either side.

The new turbine will draw upon Orbital’s SR2000 turbine which was launched in 2016 and produced in excess of 3GWh of electricity over its initial 12-month test programme at EMEC.
