The goal of this cloud-hosted computer application is to support technical assessment of marine energy resources (waves, tidal currents, river flows). This system will allow various stakeholders to estimate and map the potential and technical energy resource by resource type, by region, and by province. It performs these estimations for a wide range of constraint scenarios and assumptions, and allows users to tailor their analysis to their particular needs.
