WP1 involves overseeing project planning, execution, and coordination. It includes facilitating partner collaboration and coordinating financial management for smooth project integration and success.

WP2 involves conducting surveys, designing the offshore electrical architecture, and optimising the tidal farm layout. Partners will also establish a Sustainability Framework and design environmental monitoring systems and engineering plans to support decision-making processes.

WP3 aims to optimise NOVA's systems for a commercial-scale tidal array. It involves organising workshops with suppliers for accelerated delivery, identifying key production tools, conducting commercial discussions, and producing detailed plans for project phases for a rapid implementation.

WP4 focuses on financing, validating cost-effectiveness, and planning array implementation and sector-wide exploitation. It aims to make the array "project certification ready" by securing agreements, summarising certification requirements, and delivering commercial evidence for the Go/No-go decision. Exploitation plans will be developed emphasising scalability and commercialisation of the technology.

WP5 centres around obtaining consent for the array, managing and delivering the Environmental Management and Monitoring Plan (EMMP), and validating array sustainability while addressing critical consenting issues and knowledge gaps in the tidal energy sector.

It integrates with other packages to ensure sustainability in array design, build, and operation. Key tasks include securing licenses, engaging stakeholders, implementing the EMMP, and sharing environmental knowledge to accelerate tidal array deployment and aid global energy decarbonisation.

WP6 involves procuring, manufacturing, deploying, and commissioning a 16-turbine tidal farm, using optimised strategies developed in a previous work package.

Relevant data, such as cost and time of operations, will be fed into WP4 to validate learning rate assumptions.

WP7 deals with the operation of the tidal array for a duration of at least 2 years within the grant-funded project's lifetime, gathering turbine performance data for future designs, conducting maintenance, and monitoring array performance. It will feed data into the LCOE model for WP4 validation, refine methodologies for improved performance, safety, and cost efficiency, and conduct safety drills to enhance emergency procedures.

WP8 manages SEASTAR project communication, disseminating project results to raise awareness of the project objectives, outcomes, and technological advancements in tidal energy.
