Wave energy converter design and offshore farm deployment
CorPower Ocean manufactures and operates wave energy farms using a heart-inspired converter design with advanced control technology. The engineering-heavy hiring mix (27 of 33 active roles) and active projects spanning composite manufacturing, subsea systems, and pilot installations signal rapid scaling from R&D into commercialization. Stack choices (Orcaflex, Ansys, DigSILENT PowerFactory, PSS/E) reflect deep simulation and grid-integration work, while pain points around composite reliability and cost-effective subsea cable systems point to manufacturing and supply-chain optimization as near-term focuses.
CorPower Ocean designs and manufactures wave energy converters inspired by human heart-pumping principles, then deploys and operates offshore wave farms for utility and energy customers. The converter uses advanced control systems to synchronize oscillation with incoming waves, amplifying power absorption relative to equipment size and weight. Current operations span wave farm installation, pilot deployments, composite structure development, subsea cabling, and onshore asset refurbishment. The company is headquartered in Stockholm, Sweden, and actively hires engineering talent in Sweden and Portugal.
