Government review supports £1.3bn Swansea Bay scheme

摘要

A government-commissioned review into tidal lagoons has backed the £1.3bn Swansea Bay scheme. The review, led by well-respected Tory former energy minister Charles Hendry, said supporting the Swansea Bay tidal lagoon - seen as a pathfinder for much larger lagoons to be built in future - should be seen as a "no regrets" policy by government. Tidal lagoons harness power from the ebb and flow of the sea's tides to power turbines.
