A new idea inspired by Finding Nemo may provide a green energy solution off the coast of Noosa Heads.
Tapping into the eastern Australian current… 100km directly off Laguna Bay... using 20 tidal turbines attached to 20 barges has proved a winner for GovHack entrants, Noosa Hydro.
A Noosa Hydro spokesperson said their idea took the free power of ocean current and the proven capability of the Scot-renewables Tidal Power barge that had successfully completed one year of power generation off the Scottish coast.
