QED Naval Advances Tidal Energy with Digital Twin Programme for Predictive Maintenance
QED Naval is advancing tidal energy development through its Digital Twin programme, which utilizes operational data for predictive maintenance and performance optimization, funded by the EU Interreg Offshore for Sure project in collaboration with Tocardo BV. The initiative aims to enhance reliability and reduce costs for projects like the Ooseterschelder Tidal Project, utilizing advanced software for real-time monitoring and scenario simulation. The operational Tocdatacentre in the Netherlands will connect additional projects and test turbines in Anglesey, North Wales.

QED Naval is enhancing tidal energy development through its Digital Twin programme, which transforms operational data into investor-ready intelligence. Funded by the EU Interreg Offshore for Sure project, in collaboration with Tocardo BV, the programme focuses on predictive maintenance, performance optimisation, and reliability based on the Ooseterschelder Tidal Project.
Matt Hodges, Tidal Project Analyst, oversees data management from projects like Langstone Harbour and the Subhub-CD tidal platform. The Digital Twin aims to predict maintenance needs for critical components, improving availability and reducing costs.
QED Naval has acquired Digital Twin software, including MATLAB and Simulink, to enable real-time performance monitoring and scenario simulation. The system integrates hydrodynamic modelling, turbine performance data, and field-scale array modelling to enhance revenue projections. The Tocdatacentre in Vlissingen, Netherlands, is operational, with plans to connect additional projects and test turbines in Anglesey, North Wales.
