Tidal energy research conference contributions at RENEW 2022 & EWTEC 2023

Recent progress on energy research were presented by Konstantinos Pappas and Can Zhang on sensitivity of timeframes on tidal range analyses and tidal array sediment transport modelling at RENEW 2022 in Lisbon and by Connor Jordan, Misha Patel and Bryn Townley at EWTEC 2023 in Bilbao, showcasing work on tidal array optimisation, resource assessment, and device modelling respectivelly.
