WHAT'S OCTOPODZ?
OCTOPODZ is a mixed-mode device capable of harnessing both wind and wave energy.
By combining wind and wave energy, OCTOPODZ enables electricity production in areas where wind resources alone are insufficient, offering a reliable energy solution for remote islands and underserved communities.
This reduces dependence on fossil fuels, lowering costs and carbon emissions, contributing to energy independence and resilience in areas vulnerable to climate change impacts, while also addressing energy inequity in regions that traditionally lack access to reliable power.
Product features include:
- Increased Capacity Factor
- Vertical axes wind turbine
- Lower center of gravity
- Higher array density
- Variable geometry
- Water braking
- Wave attenuation properties
QUICK FACTS
- Oceans remain the largest untapped source of renewable energy on earth - natural oceanic flows are among the most powerful and constant dynamics on earth.
- The entire world is moving towards cleaner & renewable energy generation, with the goal of lowering carbon footprint.
- The ocean's power is clean, renewable and diverse: tides, waves, currents, winds and the sun.
- The ocean has 2 extremely important assets in abundance: water and space.
- Despite that, ocean energy currently accounts for a fraction of global electricity generation.
- Marine technologies for energy generation are still in early development, an opportunity for new projects.
- Yet, challenges are big on harnessing ocean power, operating in harsh and complex marine environments and withstanding the stress and corrosion of the sea.
Our Goal WITH THE OCTOPODZ
Change the fact that ocean energy currently accounts for a fraction of global electricity generation, by developing technologies that will make ocean sourced renewable energy generation a viable solution.
