There is an Ironkin in the Kindred of the Eternal Starforge named Gubrin Fastblade. His surname comes from the fact that he's good at quickly julienning vegetables.

For example… In 2023 a Scottish team, working with Tocardo Turbines, created an optimised monolithic composite tidal blade with minimized material use and manufacturing cost, tested in Fastblade: The world's only tidal turbine blade test facility.

Scotland is leading the way in marine energy innovation! With its stunning coastline and powerful tides, the country is harnessing the ocean's energy for a sustainable future. From tidal turbines to wave energy converters, Scotland's commitment to renewable energy sets a global example. During the 88th IEC General Meeting, delegates had the opportunity to visit the @Fast Blade Testing Facility, a cutting-edge centre designed to accelerate the development of tidal and wave energy technologies through rigorous testing. To ensure the safety, performance and quality of equipment, #lECRE, one of the four IEC Conformity Assessment Systems deals with certification of equipment for renewable energy applications. Within the marine energy sector, it also covers certification for tidal energy convertors, wave energy converters, ocean thermal energy conversion (OTEC) and energy generation in river currents.

手汗族なのと最近マウス別にメインではいらんかもな感じかもやからマウスの置き台ぽちってfastblade引っ張り出してきた

We’re part of a £7m @EPSRC funded #tidalenergy project to make renewable energy generation cheaper, more reliable and scalable. Research will be conducted in our @FloWaveOcean and FastBlade facilities. buff.ly/430QuAk #composites #NetZero

Proud to be a partner in the FastBlade fatigue testing facility.

🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿 This week, The Princess Royal carried out engagements in Scotland.󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿 On Tuesday, she visited @EdinburghUni and met staff at the FastBlade facility and partners of the MAXBlade project, which aims to deliver innovations to improve the performance of tidal turbines.

The longest tidal turbine blades in the world are to be built at @EdinburghUni's FastBlade facility. The MAXBlade project will look to maximise tidal energy generation, delivering innovations to improve turbine performance and reduce costs. #ScotlandIsNow ow.ly/W2fR50MuYFU

MAXBlade, a project aiming to maximise tidal energy generation, has been launched at Edinburgh University’s #FastBlade facility. @EdinburghUni theengineer.co.uk/content/ne…

Her Royal Highness, The Princess Royal has visited the #FastBlade facility at the @EdinburghUni where work is ongoing to develop the world's largest tidal turbine blades. Structural testing of the blades will be completed in @BabcockPlc's Arrol Gibb Innovation Campus in Rosyth.

A project to maximise tidal energy generation has been launched in the presence of HRH, The Princess Royal, at our FastBlade facility. MAXBlade will create the longest tidal turbine blades of their kind in the world, to reduce the cost of tidal energy. edin.ac/3ZJl29e

Great to attend the launch of MAXBlade, at Fastblade, located in the Arrol Gibb Innovation Campus at our Rosyth site. FastBlade is a rapid testing facility using hydraulic technology and is a partnership between ourselves and @EdinburghUni ed.ac.uk/news/2023/royal-vis…

In good company whilst waiting for our Chancellor the Princess Royal at the @EPSRC #FASTBLADE facility that revolutionises #regenerative fatigue testing of #tidal blades. A great day for #Engineering @SchoolOfEng_UoE @ColSciEng

The Princess Royal, as Chancellor of the University of Edinburgh, will visit the FastBlade Structural Testing facility in Fife.

FastBlade’s Dr Sergio Lopez Dubon presenting @OceanEnergyEU on the commissioning of the facility and the results from first tidal turbine blade fatigue tests. #fastblade #ICOEOEE22 #Edinburgh #ScotlandIsNow @SchoolOfEng_UoE @EdinInnovations

.@SchoolOfEng_UoE and @EdinInnovations are at #icoeoee22 in Donostia-San Sebastián. Visit us at Stand 32 near the main entrance to learn more about our FastBlade and FloWave facilities and our ocean energy expertise. #Edinburgh #OEE
