However, the conclusions of this study were based on a limited number of sites, since first generation tidal stream technology was assumed, which requires mean spring peak current speeds of 2.5 m/s, and water depths in the range 25–50 m. Further, the Atlas of UK Marine Renewable Energy ...

Therefore, the spatial distribution of the tidal currents over the northwest European shelf seas has been examined to improve understanding of the tidal-stream energy resource. Using a three-dimensional hydrodynamic model (ROMS) at ∼1 km spatial resolution, and applying device characteristics of ...
