10124552Alpha R3: Sea ChangeClosedCollaborative R&DInnovate UKThe decarbonisation of the marine sector is likely to drive a substantial surge in national electrical demand. The sector has a critical role in UK economy and supporting island communities, but is also complex, with huge diversity across ports and their stakeholders. Seeking to address this challenge, SeaChange will: \*build a replicable, localised model for exploring energy transition scenarios for the sector and electricity network . \*develop a tool to understand potential maritime energy demands and considerations for optimised network investment planning \*investigate potential business models to facilitate the transition; and \*consider regulatory implications for critical national infrastructure.
