Sustainable Development Commission UK (SDC) Scotland: solutions to climate change: "Tidal stream technology could provide 5% of the UK’s electricity - 58% of this potential is around the Pentland Firth in Scotland
• For this resource is to be harnessed the European Marine Energy Centre (EMEC) in Orkney must be used to its full potential.
However, our study also found that there is little understanding of tidal stream, for example people often confuse it with other types of renewable energy technology.
On Stream aims to break down this confusion so that people can take part in the public debate about the future of tidal energy from an informed position.
Tidal stream technology uses the energy contained in fast-flowing tidal currents which are generally found in constrained channels. ...
This booklet has been written in non technical language and will help anyone who wants to know more, whether that is decision makers or members of local communities near potential tidal stream sites."
