Marine energy

Our expertise is helping the wave and tidal industry to develop commercially viable projects.

We have a long and proud history of supporting marine energy, having worked on key projects and technologies across the tidal and wave sectors.

The potential for extracting power from the oceans has long been recognised, but the engineering required to extract that power is challenging. Our work has enabled us to build a deep understanding of the sector, and this experience helps you to overcome your challenges. We provide support to device manufacturers, project developers and industry bodies.
