This report provides a critical evaluation of the ocean energy sector’s legal, institutional, and political frameworks with an identification and analysis of barriers and enabling factors for the deployment of ocean energy.

The present document summarises both the functionalities, supporting theory, as well as the more technical aspects of the code implemented for this module. This module will provide the user with a set of metrics and assessments, such as the levelized cost of energy and internal rate of return, relevant to the techno-economic and financial assessments of wave and tidal renewable energy projects at different stages of development. A set of complementary metrics have been included, representing the costs of the systems against a set of benchmark values.

This document includes the details of the logistics and marine operations module of the deployment design tools. This module is responsible for designing and planning the project lifecycle phases of an ocean energy project. Reflecting the most recent experiences and best practices of the offshore wind sector, this module produces integrated solutions in respect to logistic infrastructure, comprised of vessels, equipment and ports, as well as operation durations and costs based on introduced historical weather data.

This report describes the compilation of required data inputs for the various validation scenarios. Each scenario is characterised through a set of project data, inherent to the technology as well as meteocean conditions and other location related data. Further engagement with the validation leaders is ensuring that the data is adequately formatted for the purposes of running the DTOcean+ tools.

The present document refines the previous version submitted in October 2019, updates the initial assumptions, and depicts more clearly the exploitation routes and actions to reduce risks.
