Eco Wave Power's Wave Energy Project Connects to Israel's Power Grid
, that is to be followed by a ceremonial “plugging in” event and demonstration in the coming months to commemorate this historic achievement, Eco Wave Power said."The EWP-EDF One power station we built in collaboration with and co-funding from EDF Renewables IL and the Israeli Energy Ministry. The Israeli Energy Ministry has recognized the Eco Wave Power technology as a “pioneering technology”. The EWP-EDF One power station has an installed capacity of 100 KW, enough energy to power approximately 100 homes at peak efficiency," Eco Wave Power said.“We are proud
Israel to Build Subsea Electric Cable with Possible Europe Link
an underwater electric cable that will run along its Mediterranean coast and offer the possibility to connect to electricity grids in Europe.The proposed 150 km (93 mile) cable will carry electricity from solar energy farms in Israel's southern Negev desert to cities to the center and north, the Energy Ministry said. Also in the works is a link to networks across the sea in Cyprus and Greece.Israel's national planning and building council has started to advance the plan, the ministry said.Energy Minister Israel Katz said the project is part of a broader plan to link Israel to grids in Egypt, Jordan

a large effort from multiple teams from Eco Wave Power and EDF Renewables IL, and we are pleased with how the project is looking at the moment," says Inna Braverman, CEO of Eco Wave Power.The EWP-EDF one project is executed in collaboration with EDF Renewables IL and co-funding from the Israeli Energy Ministry.Last month Eco Wave Power said it was nearly done with the wall reinforcement works, meant to enable the installation of its floaters on the sea wall of the Port of Jaffa, Israel.The EWP-EDF One wave energy project will include 10 floaters, connected to one conversion unit. Due to the

Environmental Groups Call on Norway to Stop Deep-sea Mining Plans
Arctic, extending from Jan Mayen to the Svalbard Archipelago.The discovered deposits include metals and minerals that are important in battery technology, wind turbines, and mobile telephones, the Norwegian Petroleum Directorate, in charge of the mapping, has said.In January, Norway's oil and energy ministry launched a public consultation on a proposed deep-sea mining impact assessment program, the first step in the opening process.Environmentalists, however, said it was too early to conduct such a program."We know less about the deep sea than about the moon's surface," Silje Ask Lundberg

Norway Eyes Sea Change in Deep Dive for Metals Instead of Oil
but its dreams for deep-sea discovery now center on something different.This time, Oslo is looking for a leading role in mining copper, zinc, and other metals found on the seabed and in hot demand in green technologies.Norway could license companies for deep-sea mining as early as 2023, its oil and energy ministry told Reuters, potentially placing it among the first countries to harvest seabed metals for electric vehicle batteries, wind turbines, and solar farms.That could also place it on the front line of a controversy over the environmental risks posed by exploiting the world's unexplored seabeds
Lundin Energy Chief Schneiter: Output Trending Upward at Sverdrup
we expect that we will be able to show that we can produce above 470,000 boed," Lundin's Chief Executive Alex Schneiter told a call with analysts.The new permit will allow the field to produce at maximum capacity, and there will be no limit for testing," he added.Norway's Oil and Energy Ministry, which imposed the curbs, and Equinor, which has a 42.6% stake in Sverdrup, were not immediately available for comment.Other partners include Total, Aker BP and Petoro.Lundin, which has a 20% stake in Sverdrup, said the field produced net 89,800 boepd for the company in the third-quarter, putting
