Wind power and solar PV need complement energy sources:
• Intermittent and unpredictable power production
• Use of land
• Use of materials
• Disturb radar systems around airports

THE CHALLENGE: EXPLOIT SLOWER STREAMS
• Conventional technologies can only be cost-effective in high-velocity water streams
• The vast part of the tidal and ocean current resource in the world consists of slow streams

CREATING ESSENTIAL CUSTOMER VALUES
• 5–15 times lower weight per MW
–Lower manufacturing costs
–Smaller vessels for installation, O&M
• Unique O&M concept
–Recoverable = minimised subsea time
–“Exchange program”
• Slower streams means greater access to site
LOW COST OF ENERGY
• Renewable base load – predictable and reliable power production
• Global resource
• Energy-rich
• Limited use of land
• No visual impact
• Generating electricity in unison with the marine environment
COMPLEMENTING THE RENEWABLE ENERGY MIX

EARLY STAGE COST COMPETITIVENESS
• Tidal streams: Potential to reach €100/MWh at 100MW cumulative installed capacity
• Ocean currents: Potential to reach €50/MWh at 100MW cumulative installed capacity
Cost drivers
• Low-weight design
• Low-cost offshore operations

ISLAND MODE INSTALLATIONS
• Minesto’s technology can provide off-grid economies, communities and businesses with reliable, cost-effective renewable power.
• Replacing off-grid diesel generated electricity with sustainable power from tidal streams and ocean currents.

COMMERCIALISATION: HOLYHEAD DEEP
• World’s first low-velocity tidal energy project
• Agreement for Lease: 10MW
• Plans for expansion -> 80MW
• First commercial-scale demonstrator set to launch in 2018
• Strong political support on local, regional, and national level
• Funding partnership: Welsh European Funding Office
