Gazelle Wind Power was founded to exploit patented technology for a unique floating offshore wind platform that significantly reduces the weight, size, and cost of existing floating platforms and mooring systems.  Gazelle Wind Power will license the technology to energy Project Developers, EPCs, or Wind Turbine OEMs, for the construction, installation, and operation of floating wind platforms globally. The Gazelle platform offers significant (30%) cost savings over currently deployed platforms whilst minimizing the environmental impact on the seabed.  The company is currently building its demonstrator plant in Agucadoura, Portugal. The platform design also has the potential for significant adjacent application such as sub-stations or green hydrogen, together with upstream and downstream expansion.

We are developing an ocean carbon dioxide removal method. We will initiate the formation of marine snow in the Southern Ocean. This method can remove over one billion tons of atmospheric CO2 annually. The carbon will be stored on the deep sea floor in the form of organic compound for more than thousand years. We can sell carbon removals on the voluntary carbon market. We know how to make and control the growth of marine snow in the lab, and have a pending patent application on the gea@275 methodology. Before we can test it in the ocean, we need to learn more about the ocean carbon fluxes. This knowledge is currently limited by technology. We have therefore developed an automated water column monitoring system, AlgID, which can replace water sampling and lab analysis. With this sensor fusion and AI system, we can collect big data in real time. This is the only way to increase researchers understanding of the ocean carbon fluxes. The AlgID system can also be calibrated to monitor and predict harmful algal blooms, which is an increasing problem for the aquaculture-, fisheries and tourism industry. The salmon farming industry is loosing billions of dollars annually due to mass fish mortality caused by toxic algal blooms.

Demonstrate and accelerate TidalKite deployment

GKinetic wishes to become the go-to supplier of distributed hydro solutions that can unlock clean energy from free flowing water just about anywhere and within a matter of hours. 80% of the market for distributed-scale hydrokinetic energy generation remains untapped, representing a minimum 6 million of the company’s market-ready 12kW units. To win just 1% market share would mean sales of 60,000 units and €3.84 billion in turnover. The design can be scaled up to MW tidal applications and this is part of the company's product roadmap. It is the company’s vision to see large-scale deployment of its turbines all over the world, directly contributing to the UN Sustainable Development Goals. The company wants to make a significant impact in the fight against climate change by opening up the market of local hydrokinetic generation. GKinetic is a firm believer in the large scale roll-out of hydrokinetic solutions as a key player in distributed energy systems giving power independence and control to end users from the only renewable generation source that is 100% predictable.

Aquaculture farms with energy production and passive desalination.

Go Limpets is researching the life-cycle of limpets while also commercializing live seafood in Madeira Island (Portugal). The company began its objectives of producing limpets in 2018, with a clear value chain: produce limpets in aquaculture, resell them in the regional, national and international market. To achieve these goals, the company gained one major funding opportunity to complete the study of the life-cycle of the local limpet species.

GOA Ventures has an efficient, patented and sustainable technology to make high performance proteins, biopolymers, minerals and biogas from seaweed / macro algae. Human population will continue to grow and in need of nutrients, weather stable sustainable fuels and renewable materials. GOA Ventures process uses mild efficient process to convert seaweed as sustainable renewable source for food, energy and materials.

Goodbag is a smart and reusable shopping bag that rewards customers for bringing their own bag and protecting the environment. With goodbag users can track their positive impact on the environment and plant trees, collect plastic waste out of the ocean or receive discounts as a reward every time they bring their own bag to a store. The bag connects contactless with the free goodbag app where users can track their impact in real-time and complete challenging challenges and earn cool achievements. The goodbag system is currently active in over 1,000 stores in Austria, Germany, Great Britain, the Netherlands, Portugal and Switzerland and used by industry leaders like Europes largest Airport Heathrow in the United Kingdom or the Swiss retail chain Denner in over 800 of their stores. We offer our service to brands that are looking for innovative ways to communicate with potential customers while protecting the environment.

Our Game-Changing Project H2bluedynamics is a safe, simple, and cost-effective H2 fuel and propulsion system, which allows H2 propulsion for retrofits and newbuilding anywhere and anytime without the need of costly and dangerous H2 Logistics. The H2bluedynamics, will utilize ultra-low pressure at ambient operation temperature and controllable gas release storage fuel system. Due to the friendly characteristics, our system can be easily certified by Class societies and Flag administrations given that the IGF code still does not have provisions for H2 as marine fuel. In addition, the onboard H2 production is a cutting-edge feature of the Project, providing unlimited geographical operational possibilities regardless of the availability of H2 supply chain. A vessel will maintain the crucial H2 fuel capabilities such as large range and high service speed, but will be also able to refuel wherever there is access to the electricity grid. Introducing trailblazing innovations and revolutionizing New Business models, our Project will benefit H2 Economy substantially from the development of the first worldwide concept of Virtual Hydrogen Logistics.
