Tidal Energy Resource Assessment Map for Nova Scotia
March – October 2012
This project used numerical simulations and theoretical calculations to predict not only the power that can be extracted from the flow through a passage but also the reduction in flow through the passage.
A Framework for Environmental Risk Assessment and Decision-Making for Tidal Energy Development in Canada
March – May 2012
There is still a high degree of uncertainty regarding the environmental implications of in-stream tidal energy initiatives. This report outlines a science-based environmental risk assessment and decision-making framework for the emergent in-stream tidal energy industry.
