Meet Waveline

For over ten years, the UK and Cyprus-based R&D company Sea Wave Energy Limited (SWEL) has been developing a unique Wave Energy Converter (WEC) dubbed the ‘Waveline Magnet.’ Built like a spine-like device floating on water, it harnesses the power of waves to produce electricity — offering an affordable, low-maintenance, and climate-friendly alternative to traditional technologies. In January 2022, after much research and testing, SWEL released a concept design simulating the mechanism of its latest ‘Waveline Magnet’ model.

Make it stand out

Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the difference.

Essentially, the ‘Waveline Magnet’ by SWEL (see more here) comprises several floating platforms linked via a spine-like central power system, creating a flexible and modular device that seamlessly follows wave movement. Such a symbiotic interaction with water surfaces ‘allows SWEL to regulate how much energy is extracted from the wave in a controlled and non-disruptive manner,’ continues the R&D team. Although a few centimeters thick, the low-mass WEC is pretty robust and can withstand any water environment, making it a safe platform for users to ride on.
