The lead author was AEA Energy & Environment, and the report presents a summary of various non-barrage options for the Severn Estuary (including the deployment of tidal lagoons and tidal stream devices), their compatibility with other options, cost estimations, and an assessment of some of the economic, environmental and social issues that deployment of these technologies might raise. |
