THE HALLMARK OF SEABASED Wave Power TECHNOLOGY IS ITS ROBUST SIMPLICITY
Seabased's patented technology harnesses the power of ocean waves buoys on the surface connected to linear generators on the seabed. The waves move the buoys, lifting and lowering the translator inside the stator to generate electrical power. Our unique underwater switchgear, or Marine Substation, converts the power produced by multiple WECs into electricity suitable for grid use.
The Seabased solution is highly modular. With standard 2MW building blocks we can build a small or large wave power parks. This design philosophy also facilitates a stepwise build-up or expansion, increasing flexibility and reducing risk.
