Project","dataset":"infrastructure-project","typology":"geography","reference":"EN0110006","prefix":"infrastructure-project","organisation-entity":14,"quality":"authoritative","description":"The proposed Mersey Tidal Power Project is a tidal range project that will harness renewable marine energy and provide reliable and predictable electricity power generation using the significant height difference in the tides. The project is based on mature technology (IEA definition) and will use a turbine array in a barrage-type solution. Tidal Range is identified in National Policy Statement (NPS) – EN1 as part of the UK future energy technologies. This will be a first of a kind project in the UK but using technology similar to that deployed internationally at La Rance, France and Sihwa, South Korea. the technology is also similar to that prosed as part of the Swansea Tidal Lagoon – which previously received DCO Consent. The Project consists of the following main components: - Power Generation System – up to 1GW output - Hydro Control System; - Marine Navigation System; - Power Export System including onward grid connection to a National Grid substation - Onshore operational facilities including maintenance, stores and office buildings; - Associated flood protection, rock armour and breakwaters; - Active travel along the barrage structure connecting to local access and public realm areas; - Utilisation of the surrounding port facilities during the construction phase in addition to other potential associated developments which will support the construction, operations and maintenance phase. - Has an operational lifespan of up to 120 years or more; A range of other ancillary developments and facilities may also be required as part of the Project including access, utility connections, boundary treatments, security infrastructure, temporary and permanent laydown areas, hard and soft landscaping, drainage, cables, plant, and equipment. These will be included within the stated design envelope and will be assessed as part of the EIA for the Project.","documentation-url":"https://national-infrastructure-consenting.planninginspectorate.gov.uk/projects/EN0110006","infrastructure-project-type":"EN01 - Generating Stations","infrastructure-project-decision":"pre-application"}}
