SI Ocean is an Intelligent Energy Europe project that was conceived to strengthen Europe’s ocean energy networks, enhance collaboration on research and development and overcome technology, policy and market barriers to build a Pan-European ocean energy sector. SI Ocean is focused on identifying a realistic trajectory for the commercialisation of wave and tidal stream energy across Europe, and establishing routes to increase supply chain confidence in the emerging ocean energy sector.
This Gaps and Barriers report is the third Deliverable from the Technology Assessment work package within the SI Ocean project. Significant engagement with industry, in both stakeholder interviews and a supply chain focussed workshop, has allowed for a diverse range of inputs into what is a challenging and demanding topic within the ocean energy sector: Identifying the gaps in knowledge and the barriers that are inhibiting development and deployment of nascent ocean energy technology.
