'Most powerful' tidal turbine starts generating electricity off Orkney
- teh_klev 5y agoI'm genuinely astonished at how powerful that tide is. It's also quite a disconnect watching how the water flows past the machine, as if it's moving forward when it's stationary. If I was a technician going to work on that for the first time I think it'd be quite off putting for the first hour or so.
