    Unlocking the potential of the global marine energy industry 02 South West Marine Energy Park Prospectus 1st edition January 2012 03 The SOUTH WEST MARINE ENERGY PARK is: a collaborative partnership between local and national government, Local Enterprise Partnerships, technology developers, academia and industry a physical and geographic zone with priority focus for marine energy technology development, energy generation projects and industry growth The geographic scope of the South West Marine Energy Park (MEP) extends from Bristol to Cornwall and the Isles of Scilly, with a focus around the ports, research facilities and industrial clusters found in Cornwall, Plymouth and Bristol. At the heart of the South West MEP is the access to the significant tidal, wave and offshore wind resources off the South West coast and in the Bristol Channel. The core objective of the South West MEP is to: create a positive business environment that will foster business collaboration, attract investment and accelerate the commercial development of the marine energy sector. “ The South West Marine Energy Park builds on the region’s unique mix of renewable energy resource and home-grown academic, technical and industrial expertise. Government will be working closely with the South West MEP partnership to maximise opportunities and support the Park’s future development. ” Rt Hon Greg Barker MP, Minister of State, DECC The South West Marine Energy Park prospectus Section 1 of the prospectus outlines the structure of the South West MEP and identifies key areas of the programme including measures to provide access to marine energy resources, prioritise investment in infrastructure, reduce project risk, secure international finance, support enterprise and promote industry collaboration.

  • Torness Monthly Report August 2017
    Torness monthly report August 2017 Introduction We are keen to hear the views of our local communities. We recognise that good communication is a two way process and we welcome your feedback and comments. While we will do our best to always use plain English, talking about our business sometimes involves specific terminology, and you will find a glossary of any terms used at the end of each monthly report. Safety • The station had zero lost time incidents (LTI) during the reporting period. EDF Energy staff have had 448 LTI free days (more than a year) up to 31 August and contract partners have had 1148 LTI free days up to 31 August – that’s more than three years. • The station had no emergency services call outs during August. • There were two first aid injuries at the station in August. • The station had no environmental events during August and has gone 2390 days without an environmental event (over six years). Station output Two flasks containing spent fuel were safely transported to Sellafield for reprocessing during the period. Both reactors were operational for the whole month. Station news Torness teams up with Police Scotland to improve road safety Torness power station and Police Scotland have been working hard to teach apprentices about the dangers of taking risks whilst driving. The station recently joined forces with Police Scotland to improve road safety by carrying out a number of road safety presentations. The Young Driver Early Intervention was aimed at educating younger drivers (17-25) on the consequences of excess speed and hazards associated with inexperience and bravado.

  • Renewable Energy Prospects - Wind
    Policy Briefing June 2010 Renewable energy prospects - wind CIC recently had a briefing from RenewableUK, a trade and professional association covering wind energy (both on and off shore) as well as wave and tidal energy. Although this association does not cover all renewable sources of energy (i.e it does not deal with either hydro-electric or bio-mass power), the wind sector has proven technology with good growth prospects. The development of more diverse energy resources is urgently required in light of the drive towards low carbon and the need for future energy security. Decarbonisation of the power supply will a major element in a low carbon future and there is considerable potential of job creation in building and maintaining these installations in widely dispersed locations throughout the country and off- shore. Growth prospects The EU target of 15% of all UK energy from Renewable resources by 2020 will translate to production of 30% of our renewable electricity supplies by that date. The UK Renewable Energy Strategy 2009 estimated that 5.5% of energy is currently generated from all renewables so prospects for growth in this sector are bright. Most of the future growth in renewables will occur in the wind energy sector. Figures from RenewableUK in 2010 indicate that there are already 4.5 GW of wind plant installed and a further 9 GW are either being built (2.5GW) or are consented (6.5GW). An additional 9 GW is currently in the planning system. While the largest on-shore wind farm in Europe is in Whitelee in Scotland, the biggest potential is off-shore, a fact reflected in the 32GW in off-shore licences awarded by the Crown Estate in addition to 15GW being developed from earlier leasing rounds.
