Powering the AI era: How wave energy enables affordable 24/7 clean power for data centers.

Today, Cisco highlights breakthrough findings from CorPower Ocean’s study, showing how wave energy can reduce the cost of clean electricity for data centers by more than 25%. Wave Energy is now a proven technology, ready to be deployed at scale.

The white paper by CorPower Ocean, a Cisco Investments portfolio company, explores how wave energy can power the AI era and, crucially, how it can help enable 24/7 clean power for data centers. A flat data center load in San Jose, California, was modeled with clean power supply meeting hourly demand at least 95% of the year.

⚡ Lower cost of delivered electricity: levelized cost of firm clean electricity falls from $114.5/MWh to $84.6/MWh - a 26% reduction.

🔋 Far less storage needed: energy storage capacity falls from 158.3 GWh to 14.6 GWh - a reduction of more than 90%.

📉 A smaller overall system: installed generation capacity falls from 628 MW without wave to 386 MW with wave - about 39% less capacity. This benefits data centers as well as the grid and the energy system as a whole.

These benefits scale up further at the GW level. CorPower Ocean's modular native approach offers a highly scalable solution for rapid roll-out of wave energy farms, with a competitive cost curve. Wave energy offers data centers a significant resource of consistent and predictable power to help deliver affordable clean energy around the clock.

🌊 Throwback to one of the most comprehensive wave energy explainers we've seen. When Undecided Media, LLC. with Matt Ferrell released How Waves Could Quietly Overtake Solar & Wind, it did something many renewable energy discussions struggle to do - break down the engineering behind wave energy in a way that's accessible without oversimplifying the challenge.

🎥 The documentary takes viewers beyond the headlines and into the fundamentals of ocean energy from the immense power contained in ocean swells to the technical hurdles that have historically held the sector back. It also explores how new approaches to survivability, control systems, and energy capture are changing what's possible for wave power.

🧐 For those curious about how CorPower Ocean's technology works, the film offers a clear explanation of concepts such as phase control, resonance, and our WaveSpring technology, showing how we amplify motion in regular sea states while remaining protected during extreme storms.

🌍 ⚡️ As wave energy continues its journey to commercial reality, this remains an excellent resource for anyone looking to understand the technology, the opportunity, and the role ocean energy can play alongside wind and solar in delivering a more resilient renewable energy system.

Every crashing wave delivers a pulse of power. Add them all up, and the ocean carries more energy than the roughly 30,000 TWh of electricity generated globally in 2023.12 But for decades, wave power has been a sea of broken dreams — sunk prototypes, busted budgets, and forgotten startups.

The world's first DNV certification for wave energy technology marks far more than a technical achievement, it's a pivotal step towards commercialising a new source of clean electricity.

In this conversation our Chief Commercial Officer Catharina Belfrage Sahlstrand sits down with Chief Technology Officer Andrew Litchfield to explore what this milestone really means.

From seven years of rigorous design, testing and validation, to reducing risk for customers, investors, insurers and project financiers, they discuss how independent certification builds confidence across the value chain.

The conversation also looks ahead at how advances in structural efficiency, reliability and performance are shaping our next-generation Wave Energy Converters, bringing us closer to commercial arrays capable of delivering dependable, 24/7 firm clean electricity alongside wind and solar.

Watch the full discussion to hear how technical excellence and commercial readiness are coming together to unlock the potential of wave energy.
