GreenSpur Wind - Design Services Contract
Time To ACT plc announced that its subsidiary, GreenSpur Wind Limited, has secured a design services contract with Severn Estuary Tidal Bar Ltd (SETB) to assess the application of GreenSpur's axial-flux generator technology for SETB's Very Low Head tidal turbine systems. This feasibility and design study, expected to conclude in January 2026, represents a strategic expansion for GreenSpur into the tidal generator market, a sector with significant potential, estimated to require thousands of generator units across the UK long-term. The contract could lead to a licensing agreement if technical and commercial outcomes are successful, aligning with GreenSpur's licensing-led commercial model and its existing focus on the wind sector.

[{"type":"text","content":"\n\n5 December 2025\nTime To ACT plc\n(\"Time To ACT\" or \"the Company\")\n \n \nGreenSpur Wind Limited - Design Services contract\n \nTime To ACT plc (AQSE: TTA), an engineering-led group focused on technology for the energy transition supply chain, is pleased to announce that its subsidiary, GreenSpur Wind Limited (\"GreenSpur\"), has entered into a design services contract with Severn Estuary Tidal Bar Ltd (\"SETB\"), a company developing next-generation Very Low Head (\"VLH\") tidal turbine systems.\n \nVLH technology refers to turbines designed to operate efficiently at very low water-level differences, typically between 0.5 and 4 metres of head. This enables power generation using reduced civil engineering requirements, low rotational speeds and lower environmental impact, creating opportunities for modular, scalable tidal-range solutions.\n \nUnder this initial contract, GreenSpur will undertake a feasibility and design study assessing the application of GreenSpur's axial-flux generator technology for use as a submerged \"wet\" generator within SETB's VLH turbine concept. The generator systems under consideration are expected to be megawatt-scale, aimed at contributing to the unlocking of the multi-billion-pound tidal-range industry through compact, scalable and cost-effective generation systems.\n \nThe feasibility and design study is expected to be completed during January 2026, aligning with SETB's development programme.\n \nThis engagement represents a strategic expansion of GreenSpur's technology platform. While the Company's principal development pathway and commercial focus remain firmly on the multi-megawatt wind sector, many of GreenSpur's foundational patent families, design methodologies and materials technologies were conceived with marine and tidal operating conditions in mind. As such, the tidal generator market represents a highly compatible additional opportunity to the wind sector, and consistent with GreenSpur's long-term technology and licensing strategy.\n \nIndependent analysis published in the March 2025 Severn Estuary Commission Report concludes that tidal-range schemes in the Severn Estuary are technically feasible and could contribute between 7 and 21 TWh of predictable, low-carbon electricity annually, equivalent to 2.3 to 7 percent of current UK electrici...
