The Role of ORE Catapult
Risk (and its perception) drives the cost of borrowing money…
Reduce risk through:
• Sound design principles
• Testing and validation
• Track record
Test & validation of technology is incredibly important
BLADES POWERTRAINS
ELECTRICAL INFRASTRUCTURE O&M TECHNOLOGY VALIDATION
Including specialised facilities for marine energy
T&V is just one part of what ORE Catapult does with companies
164 SMEs supported in 2017/18
410 SMEs supported since 2013
Test and validation for business models
Analysis & Insights
• Generating insights from detailed analysis • Flagship reports for policy-makers and industry • Economic impact from developing new technologies • Current and future cost reduction trends

• Annual Symposia: networking opportunities
• Connecting research SMEs, RTOs and large enterprise
• Workshops: thematic and cross-sectoral
• Information transfer and cross-sector innovation
• Masterclasses: detailed events
• Technology challenges and challenges for SMEs in the sector
• Collaborative Innovation Groups
• Bringing SMEs, large companies and RTOs to address barriers to economic deployment
• Technology Assessment
• Benchmarking and guidance using ORE Catapult’s TAP process
OPIN is as much about innovation clusters, networking and collaboration as it is about technology
OPIN’s services focus on more than just technology
Fit for Offshore Renewables (F4OR) is a unique, free service to help the UK supply chain get ready to bid for work in the offshore renewable energy sector.
Adaptation of the successful Fit for Nuclear programme (F4N), with a key focus on business excellence.
Objectives
• Increase competitiveness to support continued cost reduction in offshore renewables.
• To help secure long-term economic benefits in the UK.
Building the supply chain: Fit for Offshore Renewables – Scottish Pilot
Marine energy has been assessed against 3 key tests
• The UK government’s clean growth strategy has set out three tests.
• This study is assessing how the UK’s Tidal Stream and Wave Energy industries can perform against these tests.
• *Tidal stream has been assessed against all three test and wave energy against tests 2 and 3.
Can we see a clear cost reduction pathway for this technology, so we
can deliver low cost solutions?*
Can the UK develop world-leading
technology in a sizeable global market?
Does this deliver maximum carbon
emission reduction?

Cumulative Global Deployed Marine Energy Capacity (ETP, 2012)
Wave Energy Tidal Stream
20+ tidal stream & 20+ wave technology developers in the UK
850 supply chain companies
1GW tidal stream deployed in the UK by 2030
1GW wave energy deployed in the UK by 2040
1,700 jobs today growing to 23,000 by 2040*
*Direct and indirect jobs supported
• Hubs of activity in South West, Scottish Highlands and Islands, Wales, Northern Ireland and South Coast
• 50-60% of GVA and jobs are expected to be created in coastal areas
• Technology development is essential to innovation and supporting the supply chain
• But, there are many other key factors that require consideration and activity
• Building collaboration and networks
• Ocean Power Innovation Network
• Lobbying for the correct support from governments
• Wave and Tidal cost reduction and industrial benefit analysis
• Ensuring businesses are resilient and ready to respond to challenges
• Fit for Offshore Renewables
