Natural Resources Wales has launched an Offshore Renewable Energy Programme (OREP) to support the industry.
The programme currently has several new vacancies to help it deliver a programme of work designed to support sustainable offshore renewable energy such as wind, wave and tidal power.
Commenting on the announcement, Marine Energy Wales project director David Jones (right) said: “This is further evidence of the commitment to marine energy in Wales.
“Natural Resources Wales is critical to Wales’ ambition to decarbonise our future and we will continue to work collaboratively with them so that marine energy can play a role in a low carbon Wales.
“OREP will undoubtedly support the recently adopted Welsh National Marine Plan which provides a framework for the sustainable management of Welsh seas where increasing marine energy is a priority.”
Natural Resources Wales is committed to supporting the Government in addressing the climate and nature emergencies and to meet targets of 30% electricity generation from renewable energy by 2030.
