Why is redundancy important for power supply on tidal-dependent projects?
Because missed tidal work windows often cannot simply be rescheduled later the same day, a single equipment failure can cause significant schedule slippage. Paired generator configurations with automatic changeover reduce the risk of losing a critical work window to a single point of failure. Sparkline Group can help design this kind of redundancy into a project's power strategy. This approach proved valuable in avoiding further lost tidal windows on this marine project. It is a sensible precaution for any schedule-critical, weather-dependent operation.
