Bittencourt, C.; Flinn, J.; Myers, L.; Bahaj, A.; Retzler, C.; Sorenson, H.; Gardner, F. (2011). Assessment, reporting and remediation of risk associated with marine energy arrays (Report No. D5.6). Report by University of Southampton. Report for EquiMar.

Abstract

This report offers guidance for the quantification and assessment of risk associated with marine energy arrays. With all new technologies there will be issues at early stages of development involving degradation or failure with varying levels of consequence. Guidance is offered herein with regard to reducing early risk associated with the operational actions of an array hence increasing the knowledge within the industry.
