Ocean Energy

Marine renewable energy, encompassing wave and tidal energy, is a massive untapped resource in the UK with 50% of Europe’s entire tidal resource potential.

Our Ocean Energy Forum strives to ensure that the development of the marine renewables industry is enabled through effective financial, technical or other forms of support.

Large Scale Power & Markets

This Forum works on issues which might affect the Renewable Power Markets – particularly those which might damage investor confidence. It considers and argues for changes which could improve the operation of the market and also looks very carefully at proposed amendments to the legislation such as CfDs and the SEG, as well as the grid and networks sector.

This member forum is for any organisation that is involved in renewable electricity generation for delivery to the grid. It does not serve a particular technology or renewable resource, but cuts across all power generation technologies and naturally links to a number of the REA’s technology-focused forums.
