dc.description.abstractEurope plans to retain its first place as the leader in the ocean energy sector. In the Offshore Renewable Energy (ORE) strategy released in November 2020, the European Commission set a goal of 60GW offshore wind energy capacity and 1GW of ocean (wave and tidal) capacity by 2030. This increases to 300GW and 40GW respectively by 2050 [1]. The ORE target capacity is ambitious, but its implementation remains a challenge. Recent statistics published by Ocean Energy Europe [2] show that cumulative wave energy installation in 2021 reached to 12.7 MW, but only 1.4 MW is currently in the water. The installation capacity of tidal stream energy reached to 30.2 MW, and 11.5 MW is currently in the water. With several tidal stream arrays in operation, tidal energy is approaching widespread deployment [3], however, projects need to reach to operational stage much more quickly.The SELKIE project aims to aid the wave and tidal energy industry in accelerating the deployment and commercialisation of its technology, specifically in the Irish and Welsh regions. The project activity will establish a cross-border network of developers and supply chain companies in Ireland and Wales and create a set of multi-use technology, engineering and operation tools, templates, standards and models for use across this sector. Selkie will test and validate the technology tools on two pilot demonstration technologies, one wave and one tidal. Project resources will be used to undertake meaningful technology transfer of these tools and they will be made open access post-project. This suite of tools includes the SELKIE O&M and Logistics tool, which will allow users to model operations across a project lifecycle to determine energy production and costs as well as running scenarios to optimise the logistics required for the installation and O&M phase.
