Job retention in the British offshore sector through greening of the North Sea energy industry

► There are three possible sources of energy from sea areas in the UK: wind, tide and waves. ► As the number of jobs in the offshore oil industry reduces they should be compensated with jobs in the renewable offshore sector. ► By 2050 the UK offshore renewable industry could produce between 127 and 146TWh of electricity. ► This would represent around 57-66% of the current energy consumption in the UK.
