An introduction to the Morlais tidal energy project
The Long Voyage – nearing the next port…
About
Morlais is Menter Môn's tidal stream energy project. It manages an area of 35Km² of the seabed near Ynys Cybi (Holy Island), Ynys Môn (Anglesey). The scheme has the potential to generate up to 240MW of low-carbon clean electricity.
The aim is to play a role in tackling climate change while delivering economic and social benefit to local communities and the wider region. As a local company, this has been central to our vision from the outset.
It will not be a discussion on turbine efficiencies, fluid dynamics or anything technical, so Ludwig Prandtl, Miller and Massey can stay firmly on the shelf for this one!
Parking is free and will be in the staff carpark of the School of Computer Science and Engineering. To access it, please go to the end of Dean Street; the car-park is on your right. After parking, please enter the building, where you will be directed to the Small Lecture Theatre.
