Data Centre Integration

26 May 2026

Wave Swell Energy (WSE) is exploring a new frontier at the intersection of renewable energy, artificial intelligence and digital infrastructure: integrated wave-powered data centres. As global AI adoption accelerates, data centres are expected to significantly increase their electricity demand by 2030, placing growing pressure on renewable energy supply, cooling resources, land availability and grid infrastructure.

WSE’s concept combines its patented wave energy converter technology with integrated modular data centre infrastructure housed within, or directly behind, the wave energy platform itself. Rather than exporting electricity to shore, the platform would operate as a self-powered microgrid — generating renewable energy on-site and consuming it internally to power AI and compute workloads.

The nearshore deployment model offers several potential advantages over traditional land-based infrastructure, including lower construction and operating costs, reduced reliance on grid connections, unlimited seawater cooling and direct fibre optic connectivity to shore. The concept also removes the need for large-scale land acquisition and expensive transmission infrastructure.

WSE is currently assessing the technical and commercial feasibility of integrating data centre modules into its wave energy technology and engaging specialist expertise to support early-stage concept development. If successful, the opportunity could position WSE within one of the world’s fastest-growing industries, supporting the growing global demand for sustainable AI infrastructure.

Integrating Energy into Coastal Infrastructure: Wave Swell Energy Featured in United States Department of Energy Report

3 March 2026

Wave Swell Energy Limited has featured in a United States Department of Energy (DOE) report prepared by the National Laboratory of the Rockies focussed on the economic and deployment benefits of Coastal Structure-Integrated Wave Energy Converters (CSI-WECs).

The report independently validates that integrating wave energy converters into ports, breakwaters, and coastal defence structures represents a low-risk, high-reward approach that delivers both renewable energy and enhanced coastal protection – providing a practical pathway for marine energy deployment.

Wave Swell Energy Limited was one of three wave energy developers selected to assess high-potential U.S. sites, including Puerto Rico, Hawaii, the Pribilof Islands and Humboldt Bay.

This recognition aligns with the success of the real-world deployment of Wave Swell Energy Limited’s unique and innovative wave energy converter in a multi-year project in the southern oceans in Australia that was independently assessed by the DOE through the Pacific Northwest National Laboratory. The report comes at a time when WSE is progressing CSI-WEC deployment opportunities in the United States, Taiwan, and Europe, further strengthening WSE’s project pipeline.

This recognition by a U.S. national laboratory further reflects WSE’s position as a globally credible and commercially ready CSI-WEC solution provider.

National Taiwan Ocean University Sign Landmark Memorandum of Understanding to Advance Wave Energy Solutions

Taipei, Taiwan – 20 November 2025

Wave Swell Energy Limited, a leader in renewable energy innovation, is excited to announce the execution of a Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) with the National Taiwan Ocean University (NTOU), marking a significant milestone in the development of its cutting-edge wave energy technology in Taiwan.

This MOU sets the stage for a groundbreaking collaboration focused on the deployment of a wave energy converter at the NTOU’s facility in Keelung, Taiwan. This initiative represents a major step towards advancing Taiwan’s renewable energy capabilities, with the goal of establishing a state-of-the-art wave energy converter that will harness the power of ocean waves to generate clean electricity and demonstrate the durability and commercial viability of Wave Swell Energy’s technology in Taiwan’s weather conditions.

Under the terms of the MOU the parties will collaborate on selection of a specific site at the NTOU’s Keelung facility where Wave Swell Energy’s wave energy converter will be deployed and operated. The parties will establish a consortium of partners that will collaborate on the development and funding of the wave energy converter, including the development of a local supply chain for all components of the wave energy converter.

The collaboration between Wave Swell Energy and the NTOU is a testament to both organisations’ commitment to accelerating the transition to new and innovative renewable energy sources. President Hsu Tai-wen of NTOU emphasised “This collaboration combines industrial capabilities with disciplined monitoring and verification undertaken by NTOU to demonstrate Taiwan’s marine renewable energy strategy.” With Taiwan’s coastal regions offering exceptional potential for wave energy generation, this project promises to significantly contribute to the island’s sustainability goals.

“We are thrilled to partner with National Taiwan Ocean University on this transformative project,” said Paul Geason, CEO of Wave Swell Energy. “This collaboration underscores our shared vision of harnessing the power of the ocean to create clean, reliable electricity solutions. Together, we will pave the way for future innovations in renewable energy and help Taiwan lead the way in establishing a thriving and globally leading ocean energy sector.”
