The tides are high
Manage episode 400034692 series 3393067
The majority of countries around the world have some sort of coastline. That means that they have access to natural resources that could soon make a substantial impact on the energy transition: waves and tides.
Water is a proven energy source: countries with the right geography have used hydropower to generate green electricity for decades. Now the power of waves and tides, which can also spin turbines, is starting to garner attention. The technologies already exist and new innovations are being trialled at select sites around the world. Now the sector needs investment to scale up.
Rémi Gruet, CEO of Ocean Energy Europe, joins the Policy Dispatch to explain the potential of the sector, what is needed to unlock gigawatts of clean energy and how wave and tidal power is a great complement for more established renewable technologies.
