Morlais
This project will connect Morlais with the electricity grid system, enabling developers of tidal stream technology to deploy their devices in the zone. Morlais is located off the northwest coast of Holy Island, Anglesey and aims to generate electricity through tidal energy. Once the infrastructure is in place, it will use some of the best tidal resources in Europe.
