Minesto is a leading ocean energy technology company on a mission to minimise the global carbon footprint of the energy industry by enabling commercial power production from the ocean. Minesto’s award winning and patented product is the only verified marine power plant that operates cost efficiently in areas with low-flow tidal streams and ocean currents, to provide affordable and predictable renewable energy. The company was founded in 2007 as a spin-off from aircraft manufacturer Saab. Today, listed on the Nasdaq First North stock exchange with some 60 employees and operations in Sweden, Wales, and Taiwan, Minesto is a driving force in the creation of an emerging renewable energy industry. Join us as we fly to new depths and harness the vast potential of the oceans!

ORPC Improves people’s lives and their environment through renewable, sustainable energy solutions. A global leader in marine renewable power system technology and project solutions, we solve the problem of high cost, environmentally risky electricity generation in remote "islanded"​ communities by harnessing the power of ocean and river currents to create clean predictable locally produced renewable energy. Worldwide we are the only company to have built, operated and delivered power to a utility grid from a marine renewable tidal project, and to a local microgrid from a marine renewable river project. ORPC is committed to working with local partners and creating local economic opportunities. We are commercializing our proprietary TidGen® and RivGen® Systems using our patented core technology platform, the turbine generator unit, or TGU. Using our TidGen® Power System, ORPC built and operated the first revenue-generating, grid-connected, non-barrage tidal energy project in the Americas in 2012.

Seabased offers cost-competitive renewable energy from wave to grid. Our mission is to develop and lead the emerging and potentially enormous wave energy market. A world leader in wave energy technology on the brink of commercialization, Seabased has been full-scale ocean testing for over 10 years and has pilot experience managing every aspect of our turnkey wave parks. Waves work 24/7/365, are highly predictable and utterly renewable. This aids with grid integration and avoids the need for expensive batteries. Our wave parks are modular, so customers can start recovering costs before the entire park has been completed. Seabased wave parks can be a great source of energy for many coastal and island populations because they don’t require scarce and expensive land area, they don’t create eyesores and they don’t make loud noises. Our technology is aligned with the UN Sustainable Development goals, and research indicates our parks create artificial reefs that provide a refuge for marine wildlife. We are proud to be awarded the European Commission's Seal of Excellence and to be a beneficiary of multiple grants, currently including two Interreg grants, OESA and Dual Ports.
