Infographic: ETI’s insights into tidal and wave

Energy Technologies Institute (ETI) has published an infographic to accompany the report released yesterday on insights into tidal and wave energy.

The report states that tidal energy has the potential to compete with other low carbon sources, and that cost reduction is to be achieved with coordinated investment in supply chain innovation, processes and people.

The report concludes that in order to achieve the cost competitiveness of tidal energy an array-scale engineering is essential rather than component focused approach.

When it comes to wave energy, the report states that more work needs to be done if wave energy is to become cost competitive.
