Ocean absorbs CO2 through natural processes can we enhance any of these natural processes to pull down even more carbon dioxide?

Innovative Large-Scale Desalination

Discover

Key technological breakthroughs are expected to reduce water cost for drinking purpose & energy transition while minimizing the environmental impact.

Osmotic power

Discover

Using the salinity of the oceans to produce sustainable & clean electricity in both natural (e.g. deltas & estuaries) and industrial environments.

Large Energy Storage

Download the full report 2024

How can the Ocean help store energy in the future? We focus on mechanical (compressed air), underwater pumped hydro & floating batteries storage system that integrate with offshore renewables.

Marine Floating Solar Power

Discover

Marine floating PVs consist of floating structures supporting PV installations which use solar radiation to produce electricity.

Offshore Molecules Production

Download the full report 2024

Large offshore renewable energy potential and CO2 availability in the air or in the sea offer an opportunity to synthetize e-fuels.

Wave Energy

Download the full report 2024

Wave energy technologies range from the laboratory prototype stage to the pilot stage in real sea conditions without dominant sub-technology. Wave power converts the periodic up-and-down movement of ocean waves into electricity.

Mineral Recovery from the Seafloor

Discover

Deep seas contain large mineral resources with high concentrations of metals including cobalt, manganese, copper, nickel, silver, rare earth elements and gold which may be the key to manufacturing the low-carbon technologies needed to generate clean energy.

Mineral Recovery from Brine

Discover

Mineral extraction from brine, i.e. waste water from desalination, would support a more sustainable economy, reducing both drinking water production cost & the environmental impact generated by brine disposal.

Tidal & Ocean Current Energy

Download the full report 2024

Tidal energy technologies are the closest to-market ocean energy solutions with a convergence to horizontal axis technology devices. Tidal currents are the result of the ocean water mass response to the interaction between the Moon, the Sun and the Earth. Their magnitude depends on the...
