Wave & Tidal Energy:
Technology Development

Session C8 | Day 2, Wed 3 Nov, 11.30-12.45pm

Session Summary
This session aims to draw experience from, and capitalise on, the existing value chain that exists within other UK industries (e.g. maritime, oil and gas, defence, offshore renewables). We will also be exploring cutting edge of full scale prototype deployment whist considering installation, operation and maintenance and H&S requirements, potential areas for standardisation and the benefits from manufacturing at scale.

	Chair and speakers TBC
	Speaker: Amaan Lafayette, E.ON Climate and Renewables Pentland Firth and long term power delivery
	Speaker: Anthony Hatton, Development Director, Peel Energy Mersey Tidal Power The Mersey Estuary has one of the largest tidal ranges in the UK, making it one of the best locations for a tidal power generation scheme. A large scheme could deliver enough renewable energy to meet the needs of a significant proportion of homes within the Liverpool City region. However any scheme put forward will need to take into account the ecological diversity of the Estuary which supports internationally important bird habitats.
