WaveHydro harnesses wave energy to generate electricity and produces clean green hydrogen through seawater electrolysis, providing fishing boats with a sustainable fuel alternative. This reduces dependence on fossil fuels and minimizes marine ecological damage from oil spills. Additionally, the electrolysis byproduct, concentrated brine, can be refined into table salt or used in industrial applications, reducing waste. By transforming wave breakers into multifunctional green infrastructure, WaveHydro promotes sustainability in marine conservation and fishery development.
