How It Works
Who uses the Marine Energy Environmental Toolkit?
Developer
- Understand the state of the industry and where projects have been attempted or are permitted
- Access and review previously permitted project documents to inform your own project development
- Generate custom reports with compiled spatial, regulatory, and academic information to facilitate consultations with regulators and the development of permit documents
- Understand regulations by answering simple questions in a decision tree to identify and access relevant regulatory information and resources
Regulator
- View the latest academic publications on environmental interactions
- Generate reports to share spatial, academic, and regulatory information based on topics (stressors and receptors) and location of interest to inform decision making
- Review previously permitted project documents to understand current precedent and how environmental interactions and risks have been considered and mitigated
