Eco Wave Power Launches First-Ever US Wave Energy Plant
Eco Wave Power launched its first U.S. wave energy project at the Port of Los Angeles, developed in collaboration with AltaSea and Shell Marine Renewable Energy (MRE).This project marks the first onshore wave energy installation in the U.S., showcasing Eco Wave Power's patented technology and setting the stage for large-scale wave energy deployment along America's coastlines.The demonstration site features floaters, which capture the motion of ocean waves to generate renewable electricity - proving the technology's potential to deliver reliable and clean power.While still in demonstration
NKT to Deliver Cables for Bornholm Energy Island Interconnection
16.8 km onshore route.Offshore installation is planned to be carried out by the new vessel, NKT Eleonora, currently under construction. Once operational in 2027, the vessel will be one of the most advanced and fuel-efficient cable layers in the industry.Bornholm Energy Island is a landmark renewable energy project located in the Baltic Sea, designed to receive up to 3.8 GW of offshore wind power from planned offshore wind farms.The energy will be transmitted to Germany and Denmark via two HVDC offshore interconnector systems.With this award from Energinet, NKT will connect the energy island to both the
Eco Wave Power Concludes Operational Testing of US Pilot Wave Plant
Eco Wave Power has completed operational testing at its U.S. pilot wave energy project at the Port of Los Angeles.The operational testing marked the lowering of its floaters into the water for the very first time.The milestone follows the finalization of all installation works at the project site, including full installation of all wave energy floaters, connection of hydraulic pipes and supporting infrastructure, and placement of the onshore energy conversion unit.With installation completed, Eco Wave Power has now officially entered the operational phase of its U.S. journey."Seeing our floaters
Eco Wave Power Installs Floaters for LA’s Pilot Wave Energy Plant
Onshore wave energy technology firm Eco Wave Power has completed the installation of floaters for its first U.S. wave energy project at the Port of Los Angeles.With this critical milestone achieved, the company is moving full speed ahead toward the official unveiling on September 9, 2025, as planned.The Los Angeles project is a demonstration pilot, designed to validate Eco Wave Power's patented wave energy technology in real-world marine conditions.The pilot plays a strategic role in advancing Eco Wave Power's U.S. market entry-with key goals including environmental impact studies in collaborati
Eco Wave Power Signs Up Local Contractor for California Wave Energy Pilot
C&S Welding, a California-based industrial and maritime contractor, for the installation of its wave energy floaters and the company's energy conversion unit at the Port of Los Angeles.The agreement marks the final step before deployment begins for Eco Wave Power's first-ever onshore wave energy project in the United States.All floaters for the pilot proejct have been fabricated by All-Ways Metal, and are expected to be fully assembled in the upcoming week, keeping the installation timeline on track.The project is hosted by AltaSea at the Port of LA, with Shell's Marine Renewable Program
Wales Tidal Energy Project Moves Ahead
Inyanga Marine Energy Group awarded the fabrication contract to build its HydroWing tidal energy device to Hutchinson Engineering.The 20 MW HydroWing tidal energy array will be deployed at Morlais off Anglesey in Wales, one of the largest consented tidal energy projects in Europe. The contract with Hutchinson Engineering covers the fabrication of the foundation frame and the rear nacelle, including welding, painting and coating to a specification capable of withstanding the harsh underwater environment. The foundation frame will weigh 120 tons, with an energy yield of 1.2 MW from
CorPower Ocean to Develop 5MW Wave Energy Farm off Scotland
Swedish wave energy developer CorPower Ocean has signed a berth agreement to build a 5 MW wave energy project at the European Marine Energy Centre (EMEC) in Orkney, Scotland.Scheduled for deployment in 2029, the 5 MW array is expected to become the UK’s largest wave energy project. It will be deployed at EMEC’s grid-connected Billia Croo wave energy test site and consist of 14 wave energy converters (WECs), operating for up to 15 years.The WECs feature a 9-meter diameter spherical composite hull – one of the strongest shapes in nature - which drives the movement of the power take-off
TGS Kicks Off Geophysical Survey for Dogger Bank South Offshore Wind Project
East.“This work is critical to minimizing geohazards and ensuring safe and efficient project execution in one of the most strategically important offshore wind zones in the UK. Our data-rich capabilities will help de-risk development and support efficient planning of this important renewable energy project,” said Will Ashby, EVP of New Energy Solutions at TGS.“This year’s site investigation at the eastern array builds upon similar work completed at the western array in 2024. The level of detail obtained from these surveys is crucial in developing the most effective foundation
