About Pliosaur Energy
Developing marine-energy technology that generates clean electricity from waves and tides while helping to clean the ocean of floating debris.
Our approach
A different approach to marine renewable energy
Pliosaur Energy Limited is an SME founded in 2012 with the goal of transforming the marine renewable energy market through our patented technology. Our innovative system converts both wave and tidal energy into electricity while simultaneously helping to clean the oceans of floating debris.
Our design approach prioritises minimising the socio-environmental impacts associated with our turbines. We have also worked to reduce their visual impact, acknowledging concerns from local communities. Our turbines feature a low-profile design, similar to that of a yacht sail, extending only 10 metres above sea level.
As a renewable energy company dedicated not only to producing clean energy but also to contributing to ocean conservation, we greatly value input from national and regional institutions, NGOs and local communities. We are committed to integrating their suggestions into our designs wherever practical.
Pliosaur technology addresses global warming and greenhouse-gas emissions by helping reduce reliance on fossil-fuelled electricity generation. Our long-term objective is to produce electricity at a lifecycle cost comparable with other energy sources, removing the need for preferential support as the technology reaches commercial maturity.
