​Forming a clear, consistent and coordinated policy framework is a vital step in helping to accelerate the commercialisation and long-term viability of the ocean energy sector. For prospective policy-makers, attempting to do so can raise many questions:
  • What represents a realistic deployment target?
  • What are the potential socio-economic benefits?
  • How can ocean energy benefit the national energy system
  • How should future challenge areas be identified, targeted and budgeted for?
  • Most importantly of all, what will be the costs and how will they be responsibly funded?
The Ocean Energy Policymakers Toolkit, is a series of five reports that aims to provide the answers to these questions.
