Proserv and Verlume Team Up for Subsea Power Efficiency Boost
Proserv and Verlume have signed a memorandum of understanding (MoU) to explore collaborative opportunities in the subsea power and renewable sectors and bring innovative technologies to the rapidly evolving clean energy market.Under the terms of the MoU, Proserv and Verlume will integrate Proserv’s subsea control and communications systems with Verlume’s energy management and battery technology to improve the efficiency of subsea power delivery.This enhanced level of system integration will reduce energy consumption by as much as 50% and significantly improve operational flexibility
Mocean Energy’s Blue X Wave Device and Verlume’s Halo Battery Come Ashore
Mocean Energy’s Blue X wave energy converter, with project partner Verlume’s Halo storage system, have been retrieved to shore after more than 12 months of testing at sea as part of Renewables for Subsea Power (RSP) project.Orkney-based marine services provider Leask Marine was employed to help bring RSP technology back onshore.The next steps for the RSP project include removing all equipment from the marine site, ahead of inspection and clean down onshore in Orkney, and moving to Verlume’s operations facility in Dyce, Aberdeen.The project has given RSP's participants invaluable
Wave-Powered Subsea Project Completes 12-Month Offshore Test Campaign
A groundbreaking ocean energy project, which has combined wave power with subsea energy storage to power subsea equipment, has now completed a 12-month test program at sea and will end this spring.The $2.5 million (£2 million) Renewables for Subsea Power (RSP) project connected the Blue X wave energy converter – built by Edinburgh company Mocean Energy – with a Halo underwater battery storage system developed by Aberdeen intelligent energy management specialists, Verlume.The industry-backed project, located 5 km east of Orkney mainland, has demonstrated how green technologies can be
