Offshore renewable energy and nature conservation: the case of marine tidal turbines in Northern Ireland

2018-06-01

Abstract excerpt

The global demand for renewable energy continues to increase rapidly and with it the necessity to develop and test new technologies to deliver the power. Offshore renewable energy sources that harness wind, wave or tidal power are of major interest. Technological advances in these directions have not been matched by a clear understanding of the environmental impacts of the new devices, with most existing research...
