“The Institution of Mechanical Engineers welcomes the recommendations of the Hendry Review on tidal lagoons.
“The tidal lagoons programme offers Wales and the UK a great opportunity to become a global leader in this form of renewable power generation. The project at Swansea will enable greater knowledge and understanding of the role tidal power can play in our distributed energy systems.
“The support of the Swansea tidal scheme could create new opportunities for turbine, efficiency and design innovations as well as connecting this power source to storage solutions, such as cryogenic or new localised transport infrastructure.”
