Lagoon development project engagement process
The UK’s Crown Estate has launched an industry engagement process to better understand market interest in future tidal and lagoon projects around the UK, a move prompted by an increase in enquiries from potential developers.
Interested developers have until 7 February 2014 to give feedback to shape any possible competitive leasing process later in 2014.
“We are keen to give the industry the opportunity to set out their interest on how tidal range and lagoons projects could contribute to, and complement the UK’s growing portfolio of low carbon offshore wind, wave and tidal stream portfolios,” said Ian Selby, head of minerals and infrastructure at The Crown Estate.
The Crown Estate has published a market engagement document that details potential projects and outlines requirements applicants would be expected to meet.
