This toolkit covers the science, technology, business and community aspects of tidal energy development in Nova Scotia, effectively integrating the applied, natural and social sciences. It can serve as a model for future applied interdisciplinary work on tidal energy and marine renewables. The toolkit provides objective information and research on the opportunities and challenges associated with tidal energy. It contains summary and in-depth information, including guidelines and advice, marine renewable legislation, resource data and maps, provincial and national regulations and checklists, and other materials.
