The Countryside Council for Wales (CCW) is committed to working with regulators and developers to support the development of marine renewable energy in locations, and using technologies, that avoid significant adverse environmental impacts. The UK government is committed to producing 15 percent of all energy requirements from renewable sources by 2020. With approximately 1.5 percent of UK energy currently sourced from renewables, significant expansion will be needed to meet this target. As far as marine sources of renewable energy are concerned, UK government has to date relied on deployment of offshore wind to contribute to UK renewable energy targets and indications suggest that commercial scale (10 to 100MW) arrays of wave and tidal technologies are expected to commence largely post 2015 (DECC, 2010). CCW have undertaken to produce and share key synthesised evidence relating to Welsh natural heritage interests, in the form of GIS-based data layers, to be taken into account by strategic planning process for marine energy devices (wave and tidal stream).
The baseline layers highlight the breadth of natural heritage interests that need to be taken into account in strategic planning processes. The interpreted layers communicate the relative levels of risks to Wales' marine natural heritage from device deployment. Evidence layers have been produced for Welsh inshore territorial waters, from Mean High Water Spring baseline out to 12nm. The metadata describes the collation exercise, which was undertaken between Mar 2010 and Feb 2011. Temporal coverage of each of the baseline datasets is documented elsewhere. The environmental effects of marine renewable energy devices are not well understood and information about the marine environment is often limited, so this work is based on the best available information at the time of the study.

Information and data on those environmental receptors most likely to be sensitive to marine renewable energy devices have been collated manipulated (where appropriate) and mapped in a GIS-based format. Baseline and distribution data was collated and mapped for the following receptors; diving seabirds, marine mammals and protected seabed habitats. Interpreted evidence to produce an assessment of the relative vulnerability of key receptors around Wales was produced for the following; diving seabirds, cetaceans, grey seal, seabed habitats, coastal landscapes and seascapes.
Methodologies used to collect the baseline data is described in metadata for each of the individual projects, however a description of each of these projects, limitations of the data and the methods used to asses vulnerability is included in the CCW Policy Research Report 11/3 that accompanies this data.
Each data layer produced also includes a document detailing this information and a description of the attribute data.
