- Eco Wave Power Global AB completed a $1 million pilot at the Port of Los Angeles, generating electricity from ocean waves without seabed anchoring.
- The project advances Eco Wave Power’s global commercialization plans for over 400 MW of nearshore wave energy.
Eco Wave Power Global AB has completed its pilot onshore wave energy project at the Port of Los Angeles. The project brings the company closer to large-scale commercial deployment of its technology.
The USD 1-million (EUR 861,000) project was executed in partnership with Shell International Exploration and Production Inc. and AltaSea. Eco Wave Power submitted the final completion report to Shell on Wednesday, April 1, 2026.
The demonstration facility uses floaters to capture ocean wave motion and generate renewable electricity. It validates that wave energy systems can operate on existing coastal infrastructure, without seabed anchoring or offshore construction.
CEO Inna Braverman said, “As energy demand grows, especially with AI expansion, wave energy can deliver clean, predictable power nearshore, close to population centers and industry.”
The Port of Los Angeles system will act as a reference for commercialising the scalable technology.
Eco Wave Power also operates a grid-connected wave energy station at Jaffa Port, Israel. The company plans projects in Portugal, Taiwan, and India, with a pipeline exceeding 400 MW.
