July 15, 2013

Research and Markets has announced the addition of the “UK Tidal Energy Market Entry 2013 Report” report to their offering.

The UK is widely recognized as the leading market for tidal energy in both technology and project development. But how fertile is this market for future growth? And how can international companies capitalise on the opportunities the UK has to develop their own tidal energy projects?

With legally binding 2020 Renewable Energy Targets and a distinct appetite to grow domestic manufacturing, timing is paramount for companies wishing to enter the UK tidal energy market. The ‘UK Tidal Energy Market Entry 2013 Report’ provides essential market intelligence that will enable technology and project developers to assess the market as a first step in the decision on developing UK projects or forming alliances with local companies.

If you are keen to understand the UK tidal energy market either as an investor, project developer, technology developer or a supplier/service provider, then this report provides the essential information you need to plan and execute your UK development strategy. It outlines the processes required to develop a UK tidal energy project as well as an overview on the areas in the UK that have the potential to site viable tidal energy farms. This report also outlines the procedures required to progress a tidal energy project from conception through to the construction phase.

The report examines why the UK is the world leader in tidal energy development and what it has to offer prospective developers including:

– The current status of tidal energy technology and project development in the UK.

– The funding opportunities that are available.

– How current and future UK government support mechanisms apply to your project.

The tidal energy industry is decisively moving towards commercialisation, highlighted by a recent surge in the deployment of pre-commercial, full-scale tidal energy converters in UK waters. However, there are challenges to overcome before the tidal energy industry matures and reaches its full potential as a significant contributor to the electricity generation portfolio of the UK.
