Hafren Power (formerly Corlan Hafren) was a tidal energy business formed to promote construction of a Severn Barrage between Wales and England. History. The company was established in 2010 as a consortium of companies forming a tidal energy business.
4 de feb. de 2013 · Innovative bi-directional turbines that generate on ebb and flood tides – permitting broadly normal tidal patterns – will preserve 60 per cent more intertidal wildlife habitat than previous proposals. Hafren Power will invest up to £1 billion to create new compensatory habitats for birds.
Executive Summary. Hafren Power plans to harness one of the world’s largest potential sources of renewable energy: the huge tidal range of the Severn estuary. Building an 18km barrage between Brean in England and Lavernock Point in Wales will be one of the largest privately funded engineering projects in the world.
The Hafren scheme proposers state they would require £25 billion capital investment, and power costs would be £160 per MWh for the first 30 years, and £20 per MWh thereafter. Other schemes have been costed at between £150 and £350 per MWh.
19 de sept. de 2013 · The proposal from Hafren Power is for an 18km fixed tidal barrage across the Severn estuary between Brean in England and Lavernock Point in Wales. It would have 1,026 very-low-head (VLH) bi-directional turbines, generating approximately 16.5 TWh/year on both ebb and flood tides.
