Project Considerations
Several physical, commercial and social factors must come together at a single location in order for an ocean energy project to be viable. BioPower Systems conducts project site identification and resource assessments using its own in-house expertise combined with specialist third-party services. The company maintains a database of potential project site locations, including information on government programs, port infrastructure, engineering services, resource characteristics and potential environmental/community impacts.
