Eco Wave Power selected to perform wave energy feasibility studies along the US coast

1. Eco Wave Power selected by major energy company for feasibility study on commercial onshore wave energy stations.
2. Three-month study initiated in US and globally, exploring proposed implementation sites and providing a roadmap for wave energy commercialization.
3. Eco Wave Power has demonstrated scalability and reliability of technology, with key projects connected to national grids and pilot stations in Israel and the US.

Eco Wave Power has been selected by a major energy company to conduct a feasibility study to identify top locations for commercial onshore wave energy stations in the US and globally using their proprietary technology. The three-month study includes exploring proposed implementation sites, reviewing 77 locations in the US coastline, and proposing a roadmap for wave energy commercialization. Eco Wave Power’s Founder and CEO, Inna Braverman, emphasized the potential of wave energy to provide clean, reliable power and combat climate change.

The company has already demonstrated the scalability and reliability of its technology with various power stations around the world. Recently, Eco Wave Power connected its EWP-EDF One power station in Israel to the grid, marking a significant achievement in wave energy utilization. In the US, Eco Wave Power has a pilot station at AltaSea in Los Angeles, set to be installed as the first onshore wave energy pilot station in the country. Legislation in California and New Jersey is also considering the feasibility of wave and tidal energy deployment along their coastlines.

The US Department of Energy’s National Renewable Energy Laboratory estimates that wave energy in the US alone has the potential to generate over 1400 TWh/y, enough to power 130 million homes. Eco Wave Power’s collaboration with the energy company for feasibility studies aligns with the global push towards renewable energy sources to address climate change concerns.
