### Investment thesis
|
|
|
|
 
|
|
|
|
Tidal Energy is clean, under-reaearched and under-exploited at present. It is more stable and less cost-intensive than other renewable energy sources as well as less invasive and impactful on the environment.
|
|
QED Naval's Unique Selling Point lies in the development of a highly scalable (associated within a park thereof) and easy-to-maintain turbine module (Subhub).

|
 
|
|
|
|
<mark style="background:orange">High risk</mark>
|
|
Very early stage of the project in a fast-moving industry. Regulatory and Implementation risks are high whilst funding risk quite low given current round of VC & the securing of a pilot project (TIGER)
