Demonstration Zones

In 2014 The Crown Estate announced that they had agreed seabed rights for six new wave and tidal current demonstration zones, which for the first time would enable locally-based organisations to manage and sub-let parts of the seabed to a range of wave and tidal stream developers. The aim of these is to accelerate technology development and commercialisation. Of these 6 zones, 2 are in Wales – the West Anglesey Demonstration Zone managed by Morlais, and the South Pembrokeshire Demonstration Zone managed by Wave Hub.
