Minesto says upgraded Dragon 4 tidal plant delivers record summer power output in Faroe Islands

• Minesto reported record summer power output from its Dragon 4 tidal power unit in Vestmannasund, Faroe Islands, following a Power Take-Off upgrade.
• The new PTO lifted energy capture across the full tidal cycle, addressing stronger-than-forecast currents that had constrained output under the prior system.
• Management said the upgraded unit delivered stable production over several months, closely tracking measured tidal-stream intensity at the site.
• The company also said the upgrade reduced system costs, supporting its performance and site-configuration models for future deployments.
