Some of the HIE Energy Team are in a wet and windy Bristol today, attending REGEN South West’s 7th Tidal Energy Forum at Burges Salmon’s offices, looking at Marine Operations for Tidal Energy. Over 100 delegates have gathered for the conference from as far afield as France, Netherlands and of course the Highlands and Islands. We have heard from supply chain companies who are on the ground delivering marine operations, including Mojo Maritime. Johnny Gowdy, director Regen SW kicked off the day with an overview of the state of the marine sector in Bristol, Pembrokeshire and the South West. This afternoon we can look forward to hearing from developers - Atlantis, Alstom Ocean Energy and Tidal Energy Limited.
