French startup unveils wave energy tech that turns sea motion into electricity
SMRTR summary
Seaturns, a French wave energy startup, has raised $2.9 million to advance its innovative technology. The funding will enable deployment of a full-scale demonstrator at the SEM-REV offshore test site in summer 2025, initiate industrial production, and support global expansion. Seaturns' device converts ocean wave motion into electricity using a cylindrical converter with a patented anchoring system. The technology showed promising results in recent prototype testing, offering potential for cost-efficient, low-maintenance clean energy generation from ocean waves.
