Our aim
Sea Power is developing a commercially viable wave energy conversion device that efficiently extracts energy from ocean waves, with minimal maintenance and maximum economic returns.
Background
Sea Power Ltd was established in 2008 to provide a design environment to investigate concepts and technologies related to harnessing ocean wave energy. The principals have many years of maritime and ocean energy development experience and they have assembled a working group of experts to feed into the technology programme. The Sea Power products under development combine to form a wave energy conversion device, the Sea Power Platform. These products may be made available to other wave energy devices and associated industries.
We have completed extensive testing on smaller scale WEC models allowing us to solve many of the potential problems at an early stage and at a low cost.
Our engineering team, having immediate access to our own in-house wave flume, can benefit from fast, low cost trial and error checks. In addition, we have a sheltered off-shore test site and the 1/4 scale national wave energy test site on our doorstep.
Our business
Sea Power follows tight technology and business development programmes. We follow the Irish Marine Institute’s HMRC Development Protocol . We have established a clear route to market for our primary products and we follow a business model that best addresses the inherent challenges of this industry.
