The drive towards sustainable energy has seen rapid development of marine renewable energy devices (MREDs). The NERC/Defra collaboration FLOw, Water column and Benthic ECology 4-D (FLOWBEC-4D) is investigating the environmental and ecological effects of installing and operating wave and tidal energy devices. The FLOWBEC sonar platform combines several instruments to record information at a…

Some anthropogenic activities that produce intense sound in the marine environment present a risk of causing injury to the body tissues and auditory systems of sensitive marine life. It is an offence to kill or injure a seal under the Marine (Scotland) Act 2010 and in addition both grey and harbour seals are on Annex II of the Habitats Directive and are qualifying features for Special Areas of…

This report provides a detailed description of a set of guiding principles that should inform the development and definition of Project Design Envelopes (PDEs) for multiple technology marine energy sites. A PDE approach is a consenting approach that allows a project proponent to submit an assessment of the potential maximum impacts of a range of design parameters within its application. This…

The Tanana River hydrokinetic characterization study started in 2009, when little was known about how river environments in Alaska would affect hydrokinetic power generating devices or how those devices might affect the state’s river environments. Few hydrokinetic devices were beyond the concept/design stage, and a first attempt at demonstrating a hydrokinetic device at Ruby, Alaska, had just…
