This document describes a Protocol to manage the development of tidal-current energy devices, from concept formulation to full-scale demonstration. The Protocol, commissioned by the Department for Business, Enterprise and Regulatory Reform (BERR), was developed by the Sustainable Energy Research Group. The Protocol is part of BERR's contribution to the International Energy Agency Implementing Agreement on Ocean Energy Systems (IEA-OES) and will form the deliverable of the UK-led Task 2.2 of the IEA-OES Annex II Extension.
