Sustainable Marine Energy Ltd has received funding of GBP 1.3 mio from the Scottish Government to establish an operational and production hub in Scotland, in order to further advance its PLAT-O tidal energy technology.

Jason Hayman, Managing Director at Sustainable Marine Energy, said: “The array demonstration project is a major step towards proving the commercial viability of PLAT-O. The support enables us to set up operations and production in Scotland that will be utilised to produce PLAT-Os systems to build array capacity and roll out our technology nationwide.”
