Collecting Socio-Economic Data Around Marine Renewable Energy Projects: Social and Economic Data

The social and economic effects of marine renewable energy (MRE) must be considered in consenting/permitting (hereafter consenting) applications, as well as strategic planning processes. MRE may cause benefits or adverse effects on economies, communities, jobs, wages, revenues, social services, and community well-being. Information is needed to estimate baseline and long-term impacts and to assess social and economic changes at the local and regional scale.

This Short Science Summary was developed based on the OES-Environmental 2020 State of the Science Report: Environmental Effects of Marine Renewable Energy Development Around the World, specifically Chapter 9: Social and Economic Data Collection for Marine Renewable Energy.

The table below contains the literature relevant to this summary document and will continue to be updated as new literature is added to Tethys.
