Marine Renewable Energy
Marine Renewable Energy Resource AtlasThis new stage of development for the Atlas has enabled an enhanced definition of the primary resource variables and is now a product that is being made more accessible though a webGIS interface. The Atlas represents the most detailed regional description of potential marine energy resources in UK waters ever completed to date at a national scale. The charts in the Atlas indicate the distribution of potential resource for the future deployment of renewable energy technologies – wind, wave and tidal. The project team was led by ABP Marine Environmental Research and included the providers of major marine data holdings (Met Office and Proudman Oceanographic Laboratory (POL)). The study was completed as part BERR's Strategic Environmental Assessment (SEA) process for offshore energy. The SEA process is funded in full by BERR and more information can be found at http://www.offshore-sea.org.uk/. More information is available at
