12. The Group's remit is to develop locational and environmental guidance to deliver sustainable marine renewable energy development. Currently the Group is promoting initiatives such as sea bed mapping and the production of marine GIS in areas with significant marine renewable energy resources. Other initiatives being considered within an integrated approach include:
the provision of spatial planning policies (strategic and regional),
creation of a one stop shop approach,
development of EIA guidance to provide a single seamless consenting process,
the design of a science strategy to cover technology/environment interfaces and
facilitating regional approaches, such as the Pentland Firth Tidal Energy Project.
