ECOFlow Launch
The ECOFlow programme has launched two £7 million-funded research projects — EQUIFy (led by Plymouth Marine Laboratory) and Frontline (led by Heriot-Watt University) — to study the ecological effects of floating offshore wind infrastructure in UK waters and generate evidence to guide marine policy and nature recovery as the sector scales up.
