This one year project, running from January 2014 to January 2015, has been delivered by 12 French and English partners and 100% financed by the European Regional Development Fund (ERDF Interreg IVa France-Channel-England Programme) For businesses wishing to grow in the UK and French marine renewable energy markets of wind, wave and tide; Channel MOR provides market intelligence to help assess the industry’s attractiveness, identify supply chain gaps, find collaborators and highlight business opportunities. The conference will see the launch of a web portal which will give businesses access to comprehensive data sets on the Channel area’s marine renewables sector (courses, installations and businesses involved in the MRE value chain). [www.channelMORenergy.eu] Businesses will also find on the platform a range of decision support tools for entering the sector. These include: skills analysis within the MRE lifecycle, analysis of the regulatory environment, an update on the present state of the MRE marketplace, a map of MRE opportunities in the Channel Area, a map of the regions best suited to specific energy types, and a self- assessment guide for logistics performance of SMEs. In addition, Channel MOR has produced a video [www.youtube.com/ watch?v=k7_fe7kINKY] featuring the four main development stages for MRE initiatives: project design, manufacturing and assembly, installation and grid connections, operation and maintenance.

The UK and France, alongside other EU member states and international neighbours, have committed to facilitating a move to low carbon energy, lower carbon emissions, a reduced dependence on fossil fuels and an increased role of renewable energy technologies (IPCC, 2007; Bergmann et al., 2006; Gill, 2005). Marine energy sources (offshore wind, wave and tidal energy) are under-utilised (Inger, et al., 2009), and have a significant role to play in ensuring these obligations are met. Indeed, the importance of marine renewable energy (MRE) as a developing maritime industry was acknowledged in the European Blue Growth strategy (Henley, 2013). The Channel region is in an ideal position to promote itself as an area of excellence in the MRE sector. For example, the UK and France are currently ranked first and second globally in terms of their potential for tidal energy generation (Bailey et al., 2012). Within the Channel region, there are currently a number of proposed MRE fixed wind installations, including the Rampion wind farm, Navitus Bay, and the AREVA 8 installation, there are also a number of operational installations including London Array and Kentish Flats. There are also important wave and floating wind test sites in Cornwall for the development of emerging wave and floating wind technologies. English and French MRE markets are at different stages of development; however, as MRE in France continues to develop, the potential for an effective and sustainable Channel wide supply chain, supporting local content across the Channel region will continue to increase. This research has been conducted as part of an INTERREG IVA Capitalisation project: Channel MOR. The project brings together eleven partners (including universities, local authorities, a marine network and MRE cluster and innovation centres – see back page of this report for details of partners) from across the Channel region, capitalising on the work conducted through existing INTERREG projects. As part of its research, Channel MOR aims to evaluate the current status of the MRE market, identifying future market opportunities for businesses within the Channel region and highlighting growth options for the Channel’s MRE sector. Executive Summaries and recommendations of all reports. Please note that this report contains only the executive summaries, key points and recommendations of each of the reports in the Channel MOR Series posted on the Channel MOR website.

  • Subnational Transnational Networking and the Continuing Process of Local-Level Europeanization
    Subnational transnational networking and the continuing process of local level Europeanization This is an accepted version (prior to editing) of an article published in European Urban and Regional Studies. Definitive citation: Huggins, C. (2018). Subnational transnational networking and the continuing process of local-level Europeanization. European Urban and Regional Studies, 25(2), 206-227. https://doi.org/10.1177/0969776417691564. Abstract One of the features of local level Europeanization has been the emergence of transnational networking (TN) undertaken by subnational authorities (SNAs). This activity, which received much attention during the 1990s, enables SNAs to take advantage of the opportunities created by European integration. However empirical analyses of TN are lacking, despite European integration and the wider context SNAs find themselves within evolving. Consequently little remains understood about how SNAs engage in TN and how they are affected by Europeanization pressures. Using the case of TN undertaken by SNAs in South East England and Northern France, this article finds that Europeanization has created more opportunities for SNAs to engage at the European level. SNAs have, in turn, taken advantage of these opportunities, leading to increased participation in TN. However SNAs’ approaches to TN are not uniform. Engagement remains marked by differentiation as local level factors, such as local strategy and political objectives, affect how SNAs participate in TN. This differentiation is likely to become increasingly marked

It also confirms KCC’s intention to maintain its position as ‘one of the leading local authorities in the UK at using its influence to maximise funding from EU programmes into Kent.’ The last year has also, of course, continued to be dominated by heavy pressure on public funding and budgetary reductions within the County Council. Such domestic pressures might have made it more difficult for KCC to maintain an outward-looking focus and international profile. However, the contribution of EU funding to business priorities and the identification of European best-practice and collaborative working to improve performance makes this activity even more important in the current climate.

  • Subnational Transnational Networking and the Continuing Process of Local Level
    Subnational transnational networking and the continuing process of local level Europeanization Abstract One of the features of local level Europeanization has been the emergence of transnational networking (TN) undertaken by subnational authorities (SNAs). This activity, which received much attention during the 1990s, enables SNAs to take advantage of the opportunities created by European integration. However empirical analyses of TN are lacking, despite European integration and the wider context SNAs find themselves within evolving. Consequently little remains understood about how SNAs engage in TN and how they are affected by Europeanization pressures. Using the case of TN undertaken by SNAs in South East England and Northern France, this article finds that Europeanization has created more opportunities for SNAs to engage at the European level. SNAs have, in turn, taken advantage of these opportunities, leading to increased participation in TN. However SNAs’ approaches to TN are not uniform. Engagement remains marked by differentiation as local level factors, such as local strategy and political objectives, affect how SNAs participate in TN. This differentiation is likely to become increasingly marked as SNAs respond to contemporary challenges such as budgetary pressures and, in the case of South East England, Brexit. Key words Transnational networking; Europeanization; cross-border cooperation; subnational government; English Channel. Introduction One of the dominant themes of research into European subnational authorities (SNAs) is the impact of the European Union (EU) through Europeanization (for example Barbehön, 2015; Benz and Eberlein, 1999; de Rooij, 2002; Goldsmith, 1993, 2003, 2011; Hamedinger and Wolffhardt, 2010; John, 2000, 2001; Kern and Bulkeley, 2009; Kettunen and Kungla, 2005; Marshall, 2005, 2006; Murphy, 2007, Oikonomou, 2016; Pflieger, 2014; Van Bever et al., 2011).
