Abstract

Hydropower and tidal energy are valuable renewable energy resources that can assist in meeting the United Kingdom's net zero greenhouse gas emissions target. Existing studies have attempted to assess what the future energy resource potential is that can be harnessed from the water environment. Although schemes harnessing this energy, particularly hydropower, have been widely developed across the UK, few of the resource assessments account for already operational sites. This study takes the initial step required to holistically assess an accurate available potential by determining where and how much of the combined resource has already been exploited.
