Eco Wave Power and its partner I-KE International Ocean Energy, a subsidiary of Lian Tat Company, have been awarded exclusive rights to deploy Taiwan\u2019s first 100 kW onshore wave energy unit at Suao Port.<\/p>\n
\u201cThis tender award represents a groundbreaking moment for Eco Wave Power and for Taiwan,\u201d said Inna Braverman, Founder and CEO of Eco Wave Power.<\/p>\n
\u201cIt is not only our entry point into the Asian market but also the first time that a Taiwanese port has been allocated for wave energy testing.\u201d<\/p>\n
Landmark moment<\/strong><\/p>\n The project represents a landmark moment in the integration of tidal power and wave technology into Taiwan\u2019s clean energy transition, with potential expansion up to 400 MW nationwide.<\/p>\n The Keelung Branch of Taiwan Port Corporation designated 6.75 hectares of Suao Port\u2019s southern outer breakwater for testing.<\/p>\n I-KE secured Zone C, where the wave energy unit will be installed under a turnkey agreement signed in late 2024. The site\u2019s location, facing the Pacific Ocean, provides stable conditions ideal for commercial-scale development.<\/p>\n The project is expected to showcase how marine civils expertise, combined with advanced port infrastructure, can accelerate renewable energy deployment.<\/p>\n With phased plans to scale from 20 MW to 400 MW, it\u2019s hoped that Suao Port could become a flagship hub for marine renewables, enhancing Taiwan\u2019s leadership in innovative clean energy solutions.<\/p>\n
