What the current evidence supports
Human editorial judgment · 2026-06-28
Proceed with caution
- Why
- The predecessor O2 has a genuine multi-year operating record (40%+ capacity factor, >90% availability since 2021), but the O2-X is an unbuilt scale-up at the earliest certification stage, and tidal economics remain ~3.4x mature offshore wind.
- Next
- Track O2-X progression past the Feasibility Statement to full IECRE certification and a first in-water deployment, plus tidal-stream CfD strike prices (AR6 cleared at £172/MWh; watch AR7), before treating 2.4 MW series production as bankable.
