IEC/TS 62600-200, Ed. 1: Marine energy.Wave, tidal and other water current converters.Part 200: Power performance assessment of electricity producing tidal energy converters
This Technical Specification provides:
• a systematic methodology for evaluating the power performance of tidal current energy converters (TECs) that produce electricity for utility scale and localized grids;
• a definition of TEC rated power and rated water velocity;
• a methodology for the production of the power curves for the TECs in consideration;
• a framework for the reporting of results.
