Valuable insights for resource assessment and site selection
Satellite and in-situ data provided by the Copernicus Marine Service have greatly expanded opportunities to make tidal atlases accurate. a) Maximum current speed;
TidEA is processing these tidal atlases to provide you with the right indicators for a first level of tidal energy assessment :
b) Percentage of time where the current speed is higher than different thresholds (1.5 m/s, 3 m/s);
c) Average Power Density.
These indicators will be available only in the areas where the bathymetry is lower than 100 meters (Coastal areas).
Through TidEA, you will be able to download
maps, reports and statistics
in a couple of seconds.
