Abstract
It is widely known that conventional fossil-fuel derived sources of energy contribute to climate change through the production of greenhouse gases. In an effort to slow this change, non-polluting renewable resources such as wind power, wave power and tidal power, are being more commonly exploited. However, many of these renewable energy sources depend innately on the climate itself, so it is necessary to understand how they will react to climate change and how this will impact on their viability in the short- and long-term.
