CRUSE Offshore GmbH (COG)

We are working on floating, wind-powered "Offshore H2 Generators" that will be operated in sea areas with high wind speeds without a power grid connection. The hydrogen produced is then immediately stored in a liquid organic hydrogen carrier (LOHC) and transported at intervals by shuttle tanker to nearby industrial ports (cf. FPSO process). We have been invited by the Federal Ministry for Economic Affairs and Climate Action to submit applications for "Prototype development of a floating offshore H2 generator and planning of GW offshore hydrogen farms". Now, with the help of BlueInvest, we want to start planning the financing of a prototype. This is a requirement for the subsequent construction of GW hydrogen farms with industrial/VC-investors within the EEZs of European states.

Daretech

We design, build and operate bespoke hybrid power systems for marine applications. The hybrid power system allows the existing diesel Genset to run at peak efficiency and then switches over to battery mode to provide power once fully charged. Renewable generation provides additional charge to the battery bank, further reducing the requirement for the diesel generator. The operating principle is: The electrical load is usually a fraction of generator capacity. Excess generator capacity is used to charge the battery system. Electricity for appliances is provided from the battery system. The system is fully automated between the generator and battery controls.

DeckCell

DeckCell is a simple but effective system to prevent any container losses into the sea and to enhance fire safety in parallel as it would also provide a platform for the installation of advanced firefighting equipment at height to effectively fight burning containers stowed on deck. Furthermore DeckCell will make all manual lashing work at the containers stowed on deck obsolet.

Desolenator

Desolenator is the world’s first solar thermal desalination solution that works at scale - we harness the power of the sun to sustainably turn seawater into drinking water or ultrapure water. Our patented technology harvests 4x more energy from the sun than traditional PV panels. We use zero harmful chemicals, zero membranes, and zero energy intermittency. Optimized for Zero Liquid Discharge, this circular technology enables the production of quality water and salt and is designed to operate with zero harm to the planet. This is a step-change to traditional desalination, which uses a lot of fossil fuels and toxic chemicals which damage our oceans. Our technology is delivered through a scalable "Water as a Service" model, where customers can choose their water according to their specific needs: Ultra pure water (<1ppm) for speciality processes such as the production of green hydrogen, pure potable water; or custom remineralised. All delivered through a simple monthly water bill. In 2022, Desolenator launched its flagship project in partnership with the Dubai Electricity and Water Authority (DEWA). Desolenator is primed to scale our modular units each creating 250,000 litres per day at a levelized cost of water of less than 1 USD/1000L.

Development of stereoscopic cameras

Stream Ocean is distributing autonomous and low-maintenance underwater cameras made for long-term deployment in coral reef restoration projects. With AI-driven biodiversity assessments, we assess the underwater biodiversity and communicate it to project managers and various stakeholders. Although we are able to deliver biodiversity assessments, our project partners continue to request fish biomass information. With the help of the Blue Invest Community, we would like to adapt our technology and develop stereoscopic cameras which can provide this biomass information.
