Maiden Wave Energy

Maiden Wave Energy is attending Oi Conference in San Diego in February! We hope to see you there!

This past summer, we at Maiden Wave Energy were honored to be selected as the top winner of the Powering the Blue Economy: Ocean Observing Prize competition!! This joint initiative by the DOE: Water Power Technologies Office and NOAA: Integration Ocean Observing System program has an objective of creating an ocean observing platform, free from the limitations and restrictions of battery powered systems.

Maiden Wave Energy’s boat, the WEPAB-8, is able to host an array of ocean observing sensors, without the restrictions of being powered by batteries because this platform utilizes wave energy conversion technology. With that, WEPAB-8 is able to extract energy from passing ocean waves, and converts that kinetic energy into electrical energy to power it’s onboard systems. This provides the WEPAB-8 the ability to remain at sea for longer, collecting more data, with less downtime caused by depleted batteries.

Welcome to Maiden Wave Energy! Our goal is to create a new platform for clean Ocean Energy and data collection 🌊🐠
