Tethys Marine Renewable Energy Fact Sheet

Wave Swell Energy's UniWave

Tethys supports the marine renewable energy (MRE) community by facilitating the knowledge sharing needed to advance MRE development in an environmentally responsible manner. Tethys has been developed to provide researchers, regulators, advisors, project developers, and other stakeholders with information and research findings that can support siting, consenting (or permitting) processes, management decisions, and operational strategies while minimizing risk to the environment.

OES-Environmental is an international initiative established in 2010 under the International Energy Agency’s Ocean Energy Systems collaboration to examine the environmental effects of MRE development around the world. Tethys acts as the coordination, collaboration, and outreach platform for OES-Environmental, which works closely with researchers, regulators, advisors, developers, and other stakeholders to help progress the industry and expedite environmental consenting processes.
