McLaughlin & Harvey were the first in the UK to successfully connect a tidal energy device to the national grid. The EMEC 5MW double armoured underwater cable end was approx 330m long and was recovered, relocated and pulled up the J-tube of the OpenHydro platform at the Fall of Warness tidal site in Orkney.
