Journal Article
Loxton, J., MacLeod, {. K., Nall, {. R., McCollin, T., Machado, I., Simas, T., …Miller, R. (2017). Setting an agenda for biofouling research for the marine renewable energy industry. International Journal of Marine Energy, 19, 292--303. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.ijome.2017.08.006

Extensive marine growth on man-made structures in the ocean is commonplace, yet there has been limited discussion about the potential implications of marine growth for the wave and tidal energy industry. In response, the Environmental Interactions of... Read More about Setting an agenda for biofouling research for the marine renewable energy industry.

As part of ongoing commitments to produce electricity from renewable energy sources in Scotland, Orkney waters have been targeted for potential large-scale deployment of wave and tidal energy converting devices. Orkney has a well-developed infrastruc...
