DEPARTMENT OF ENERGY
Federal Energy Regulatory Commission
[Project No. 15385-000]
Verdant Power, Inc.; Notice of Preliminary Permit Application
Accepted for Filing and Soliciting Comments, Motions To Intervene, and
Competing Applications
On December 9, 2024, Verdant Power, Inc., filed an application for
a preliminary permit, pursuant to section 4(f) of the Federal Power Act
(FPA), proposing to study the feasibility of the Long Island Sound
Tidal Energy Project to be located in Eastern Long Island Sound near
the communities of East Marion and Greenport in Suffolk County, New
York. The sole purpose of a preliminary permit, if issued, is to grant
the permit holder priority to file a license application during the
permit term. A preliminary permit does not authorize the permit holder
to perform any land-disturbing activities or otherwise enter upon lands
or waters owned by others without the owners' express permission.
The proposed project would consist of the following: (1) 20- to
900-kilowatt (kW) bottom-mounted horizontal axis tidal turbine(s) with
a maximum
[[Page 23681]]
diameter of approximately 14 meters (i.e., 45.92 feet); (2) a modular
foundation substructure (configuration dependent on site
characteristics) composed of multiple turbines allowing for removal and
maintenance of the turbines with a total capacity of 30 megawatts; (3)
a single transmission line connecting the module to a shoreline landing
site and then with an overhead connection to an existing substation;
and (4) appurtenant facilities. The proposed project would have an
annual generation of up to 60 gigawatt-hours.
