Specifically this study focuses on understanding changes in sediment dynamics due to renewable energy structures. Three overarching science ideas have emerged where NERC could provide a significant contribution to the knowledge base. Research into these key areas has the potential to help the UK with planning, regulation and monitoring of marine renewable installations in a sustainable way for both stakeholders and the environment. A wide ranging consultation with stakeholders was carried out encompassing regulators, developers, researchers and other marine users with a relevance to marine renewable energy and/or sediment dynamics. Based on this consultation a review of the present state of knowledge has been produced, and a relevant selection of recent and current research projects underway within the UK identified to which future NERC funded research could add value. A great deal of research has already been done by other organisations in relation to the wind sector although significant gaps remain, particularly in long term and far-field effects.

  • Development of Tidal Energy Generation Modelling Using Morecambe Bay As a Case Study Under Different Environmental, Storage and Demand Scenarios
    Development of tidal energy generation modelling using Morecambe Bay as a case study under different environmental, storage and demand scenarios. By Simon Baker Supervisors: Prof George Aggidis Dr David Howard In collaboration with Northern Tidal Power Gateways This project was supported by the Centre for Global Eco-Innovation and is part financed by the European Regional Development Fund. Signed Declaration Lancaster University Faculty of Science and Technology Engineering Department Signed Declaration on the submission of a dissertation “I declare that this dissertation is my own work and has not been submitted in substantially the same form towards the award of a degree or other qualification. Acknowledgement is made in the text of assistance received and all major sources of information have been appropriately referenced. I confirm that I have read and understood the publication Guidance on Writing Technical Reports published by the Department.” Signed ……………………………………………………… 9th October 2020 Date ………………………………………………………… ii Abstract Electricity generation is a major source of greenhouse gas emissions. Renewable energy mitigates those emissions but poses different problems for the use of the power. This project examines the potential of using a barrage across Morecambe Bay to capture tidal range energy. The tidal system for a specific location is complex and requires multiple levels of robust detailed modelling. The optimum barrage operational parameter values (e.g. generating starting head and turbine speed) vary with the height of the tide. They are also influenced by the design and should be adjusted whenever the design changes. Using 0-D modelling, the energy from real tides can be modelled effectively by applying a set of linear functions to relate the operational parameters to the tidal range.

    Opportunities for the UK in Tidal Energy DR JUDITH WOLF MARINE SYSTEMS MODELLING GROUP, NOC VISITING PROFESSOR, SCHOOL OF ENGINEERING, LIVERPOOL UNIVERSITY LTI centennial, 11 May 2019 Outline • The Energy Trilemma • What is Offshore/Marine Renewable Energy? • What contribution could tides make to UK renewable energy? • The benefits of computer tidal models • Estimation of large scale resource and environmental impacts • What are the outstanding challenges? The way forward – politics, economics and engineering 2 The Energy Trilemma • Where does UK stand? AAA • Do we need renewable energy? • How much of a role is there offshore/marine energy? Look at GridCarbon smartphone app to see how we are doing e.g. World Energy Council (2018) (Accessibility and affordability) Offshore/Marine Renewable Energy 4 • The EU's Renewable Energy Directive (2009/28/EC) sets a binding target of 20% final energy consumption from renewable sources by 2020 • UK target is 15% of all energy from renewables by 2020 – this breaks down to 30% electricity, 12% heat and 10% transport fuels – we may achieve first but are likely to miss the other two • What about wave power? – large potential but early stage for significant exploitation (despite publicity for Salter’s Ducks in 1970’s). Promising technology has failed e.g. Pelamis • Wind Power – 21 GW deployed capacity (8GW offshore, generating 8% UK electricity) seen as producing 15% of UK electricity by 2020 In 2009 the UK became the leading country for offshore installed wind capacity • Tidal Stream – 5% (SDC,2007) ~ 7GW capacity • Tidal Barrages – 15% (Burrows et al 2009) – NW England ~ 5% (comparable to the Severn Barrage); Mersey Barrage ~ 1 TWh ~ 0.3% ~ 210 Wind Turbines Ancient tide mills e.g.
