1000MW Tidal Energy With Airtricity

To complement its technology development, Aquamarine's in-house site development team has developed unique tools to identify and evaluate marine energy sites across the world. Using its in-house model of tidal and wave power resources around the coasts of UK and Ireland, the Company has identified several Gigawatts (GW) of promising sites. To secure consent to develop marine energy capacity, high consideration must be given to local stakeholders, socio-economic impacts, environmental compatibility and other sea-users' needs.

The two companies' goal is to deliver marine energy sites suitable for deploying Aquamarine's market-leading wave and tidal technologies, including the Oyster Wave Energy Converter and the Neptune Tidal Device. The two companies will work together with stakeholders to select and develop the most promising sites to deliver local economic benefits, environmental protection and clean energy.
