EcoWave combines the use of wave energy converters and photovoltaic solar panels to provide a renewable power source for desalination plants.

Wave energy converters are installed offshore to harness ocean wave energy and convert it into electricity.

Meanwhile, solar panels are placed onshore or on plant rooftops to collect solar energy.

The generated renewable energy is directly fed into the desalination plant, replacing or supplementing the use of fossil fuels.

This hybrid system is supported by IoT-based energy management software that optimizes energy consumption and storage, ensuring continuous operation even under fluctuating conditions.

Advanced storage systems are used to store excess energy, which improves the system's resilience and reliability.

EcoWave drastically lowers carbon emissions from desalination plants by replacing fossil fuels with renewable energy, thus reducing operational costs and meeting environmental regulations.

This solution is modular and scalable, making it adaptable to various plant sizes and geographic locations, offering a competitive edge in regions with high solar and wave energy potential.

Renewable energy technology such as solar panels and wave energy converters is mature and increasingly cost-effective.

Initial investment in infrastructure is high, but costs are offset by long-term savings on energy.

Regulatory approval could be challenging, depending on marine installation requirements and local energy policies.
