Recently, Renewables for Subsea Power (RSP) carried out one of the most intensive projects to harness the energy from the ocean. can be converted into electricity and now a renowned oil company will join the innovations of this promising campaign, which supplies energy to underwater equipment.
All the details: This is the striking project that seeks electricity under the sea
This project in question aims to use a combination between large wave energy and energy storage to power these underwater equipment. Due to the promising results, Shell has decided to financially support this project aims to generate electricity by the energy of the sea.
How will it do? Shell will fund a new research and development plan called “Shell Technology – Marine Renewable Program”, with the main aim of implementing new and innovative underwater energy sourceswithout simultaneously producing energy during the above research.
Shell’s investment would have been mainly to anticipate certain climate changes and look for new alternatives that help reduce CO2 emissions, which not only reflects its evident commitment to ocean exploration and the application of innovative solutions to it, but it also has an admirable strategy for research in the field of renewable energy.
The company is particularly committed: these are the following plans
Shell’s contribution through this program underlines its role as a key player in promoting sustainable technologies in the energy sector. Since it was a large amount with which he decided to benefit the project, namely two million pounds, this would translate into two million five hundred thousand euros.
In this project the successful connection of Mocean Energy’s Blue. The development of this underwater project already has great expectations for the use of these large and wonderful machines.
From this milestone onwards, Shell will enter into an ongoing partnership with Mocean Energy and Verlume. In addition, it will increasingly engage with other leading companies in the sector, which will be able to add new energy collection alternatives. Some of the companies mentioned above include Baker Hughes, Serica Energy, Harbor Energy, Transmark Subsea, PTTEP, TotalEnergies and the Net Zero Technology Center (NZTC).
With this and the following alliances, Shell demonstrates its strategic intervention in a range of diverse key players in the environmental and energy industries, consolidating efforts to advance the development and implementation of innovative and sustainable underwater technologies, with a friendly approach to environment. .
These are some of the surprising advances of the energy project
In 2021, the consortium made another major investment of £1.6 million in the second phase of the project. As a result, successful integration of core technologies into an onshore test environment was achieved at this stage, carried out at Verlume’s Aberdeen operational site.
That same year, Mocean Energy’s Blue was released. During these tests, the prototype not only generated its first energy, but also collected crucial data on its performance and operation.
This process has been essential in validating the effectiveness and adaptability of the technology in a real marine environment, and marks fundamental progress in the successful evolution of the Renewables for Subsea Power project. Is this the long-awaited discovery at the bottom of the ocean?
