Sea Cradle converts a wave's energy into electricity. The system is enclosed in a protected container not exposing the components to the elements. This technology can increase the power generation onboard vessels and floating platforms. Dedicated offshore Sea Cradles can add to coastal renewable energy generation.
Wave energy adds strength to the renewable mix by filling the gaps left by solar and wind. Waves keep moving at night, in winter, and even when the wind is minimal, providing consistent power. This reliability balances the grid, reduces fossil fuel reliance, and creates a more resilient energy system.
Waves can be predicted days in advance with decent accuracy. They are in motion year round, day/night and seasonal variability is predictable.
Coastal communities often face high energy costs and heavy reliance on imported fuels. Harnessing nearby wave energy turns a local natural resource into affordable, clean power.
Dedicated Sea Cradle farms could deliver reliable coastal energy, complementing solar and wind, reducing fuel imports, and strengthening energy independence for islands and coastal regions.
Sea Cradle could power feeding systems and sensors with clean wave energy, cutting diesel use, reducing costs, and improving sustainability in aquaculture.
Ships can turn required ballast into power, extending range, reducing generator reliance, and boosting ESG performance.
Wave-powered buoys could operate autonomously for years, lowering servicing costs and enabling continuous navigation, research, and security monitoring without frequent battery changes.
Sea Cradle enables long-endurance naval drones with quiet renewable power, extending mission duration, reducing refueling needs, and supporting defense and security operations.
Containerized Sea Cradles gather real-world wave and ship-motion data on global routes, de-risking technology, refining models, and building trust with operators for ballast substitution markets.
Unlike most wave energy devices, Sea Cradle does not interact directly with the waves. Instead, it uses the vessel’s entire hull as the contact point and is securely fastened inside.
This protects the mechanism from harsh marine conditions while capturing kinetic energy already present on board.
Small versions can power drones and buoys; larger versions fit inside shipping containers for low-cost global transport. Standardized designs can lower manufacturing costs.
