"Independent research to underpin the creation of a sustainable marine energy sector in Wales"
LCRI Marine is a collaboration of all the leading academic marine institutions in Wales.
The LCRI Marine project aims to enable, support and help build a sustainable marine energy sector in Wales. It provides the independent and world-class research essential to move the marine renewable energy industry forward.
The project team is involved in the development and application of tools which optimise the performance of the technology. It also evaluates devices that recover energy from waves, tidal streams and tidal ranges around the Welsh coast.
In particular, the group considers the likely effects that these devices have on the environment, such as their effect on seabed communities, sediment transport and marine wildlife.
