Atebwyd gan Minister for Economy
Our Programme for Government sets out a commitment to develop a Tidal Lagoon Challenge and support ideas that can make Wales a world centre of emerging tidal technologies. This will help deliver vital socio-economic outcomes and help mitigate the effects of climate change.
The opportunities for renewable energy at Aberthaw, including the potential for tidal energy, are being discussed with Cardiff Capital Region and the Vale of Glamorgan Council.
