Nils Juin’s final-year dissertation at ENSM

New technologies: tidal turbines

Written as part of his studies at the École Nationale Supérieure Maritime (ENSM), this final-year dissertation offers a structured overview of tidal stream energy at the turn of 2018/2019: technical principles, resource potential, sector context, projects then under way, and the regulatory framework.

The underlying physical principles remain valid. What has changed since then mainly concerns industrial trajectories, project timelines and sector stakeholders. The document therefore retains clear value for understanding a decisive period in the development of tidal stream energy.
