Sounds like a really interesting project. 

The 30 MW pilot project is to be located 16 km off the coast of Leucate and Le Barcares. The semi-submersible foundation will be anchored using three catenary mooring and classic anchors. One foundation will be equipped with Enocean's 'bio huts' which provide sheltered nurseries for marine organisms. 

I'd love to know more about these bio-huts-- are there studies out there about the effect they're able to have?

Similar size of projects to Buchan Deeps albeit with different machines. 

We did indeed commission fishery 'Orjip' work with key stakeholder regarding fisheries opportunities as opposed to threats.  I'll see whether any of it is in the public domain when I get a few spare minutes

If you have an experience or insight to share or have learned something from a conference or seminar, your peers and colleagues on Energy Central want to hear about it. It's also easy to share a link to an article you've liked or an industry resource that you think would be helpful.
