Last surgery of 2024 yesterday, plus a fascinating meeting at a great Swansea start-up: Marine Power Systems are doing exciting work on the future of offshore wind. Keep an eye on them in the years ahead.
Thanks @amcarmichaelMP for highlighting #tidalenergy key asks to the Secretary of State for Energy Security and Net Zero. We'd be delighted to welcome @Ed_Miliband@energygovuk to Orkney to see tidal power in action.
Celebration of tidal stream success CR4&5 at Marine Energy Group with Minister @AndrewBowie_MP. In all £40m dedicated funding, 100mw deliverable by 2028, 45 people employed per mw in 8 projects Wales & Scotland, esp Morlais/ Meygen. Happy birthday @Chilliocean
🙏🏻 @RenewableUK
Fantastic news that the @energygovuk 's latest renewable auction could see an additional 50MW of tidal stream projects deployed in UK waters by 2028.

Sue Barr @SimplyBlueGroup at the #ICOEOEE2022 High-Level Leader's Discussion: 'We're seeing more innovation not just in technologies, but also the policy framework and support instruments - it's a fundamental shift.' @Cluster_Energia@Chilliocean
Marine Energy Council Chair @Chilliocean addresses the #ICOEOEE2022 conference highlighting the socioeconomic, environmental and energy system benefits of wave and tidal stream energy. 🌊
We are proud to support this excellent campaign. Allocation Round 4 is forecast to deliver 34MW of tidal stream capacity. The industry will respond to increased Government ambition and provide the UK with even more secure and entirely predictable renewable energy.
The U.K. 🇬🇧 Government is supporting more marine energy, like tidal stream.
We recently announced a dedicated £20m 💷 ringfenced budget in our latest Contracts for Difference auction.
Good meeting with @marinecouncil to discuss this & other moves forward for tidal & wave 🌊!
