Bluemull Sound
Bluemull Sound is the strait between Unst and Yell in Shetland's North Isles. A ferry service crosses it regularly. Cullivoe is on the Yell side, and the island of Linga lies in the strait.
The "world's first community-owned tidal power generator" became operational in Bluemull Sound in April 2014. The turbine is a 30 kW Nova Innovation device, owned by the North Yell Development Council 〔North Yell Development Council - www.northyell.co.uk/tide.php〕 and is connected to the local grid via 1 km subsea cable; helping power an ice house and up to 30 local homes.
The Sound was referred to as "Blumel sound" in early 1800 nautical references.〔http://books.google.com/books?id=a7QBAAAAYAAJ&dq=%22blumel%22&pg=PA274#v=onepage&q=%22blumel%22&f=false〕〔http://books.google.com/books?id=ryxGAAAAcAAJ&dq=%22blumel%22&pg=PA212#v=onepage&q=%22blumel%22&f=false〕 It was later referred to as Bluemull Sound in 1865.〔http://books.google.com/books?id=IG07AQAAMAAJ&dq=%22bluemull%20sound%22&pg=PA9589#v=onepage&q=%22bluemull%20sound%22&f=false〕 It is unclear why there is such a discrepancy in the name.
