This Order amends the Renewables Obligation (Scotland) Order 2009 (“the 2009 Order”). Article 2 makes provision for enhanced wave and tidal stream technologies and ensures that electricity generated from such sources is entitled to SROCs as defined in the 2009 Order.

Electricity generated from enhanced tidal stream sources will be entitled to 1 SROC per ⅓ megawatt hour generated, with electricity generated from enhanced wave sources entitled to 1 SROC per ⅕ megawatt hour generated.
