SUMMARY:Net Zero Hour - March
DESCRIPTION:Event Overview: \nMersey Tidal Power: The Road to Net-Zero \nWe are pleased to invite you to the fifth instalment of ‘Net-Zero Hour‘\, hosted by the The EPSRC Centre for Doctoral Training in Net Zero Maritime Energy Solutions (N0MES). Our next seminar will be delivered by Dr Shaun Benzon\, Head of Project Development for Mersey Tidal. Please feel free to forward this invitation on to any parties that will find this relevant or interesting. \nAbstract \nGenerating up to a gigawatt of clean\, predictable\, electricity\, with low production costs\, Mersey Tidal Power would create thousands of jobs while supporting UK energy security and the road to net zero.  And as sea levels rise\, a barrage across the Mersey would provide vital flood protection for the many communities living along the river.  Already in the planning process\, the project would use proven technology to deliver clean energy for over 120 years. This presentation will provide an overview of this iconic infrastructure project as well as the current status of the development. \nPresenter\n\n \nShaun Benzon\nHead of Project Development\nDr Shaun Benzon – Head of Project Development – Mersey Tidal – Liverpool City Region. Shaun has been Head of this since 2019\, leading on the delivery of technical and environmental workstreams of the project\, collaboration with international organisations and supporting the wider promotion of the project. With 14 years’ experience in energy projects including hydropower\, tidal power and wave energy as well as R&D\, modelling\, testing and manufacturing. Shaun is on the advisory panels for the Cardiff University EPSRC TARGET (Tidal range schemes as configurable grid-scale energy storage facilities) and Jacobs SMART Grant VLHT (Very Low Head Turbine) projects.
