Mean Sea Level was established in 2013 with the aim to commercialise its locally developed ocean wave energy convertor design. We intend to pursue niche renewable energy opportunities in the broader market, especially those with local manufacturing potential.
Mean Sea Level’s mandate is thus to design, develop, build, own and operate sustainable renewable energy related projects. This includes the ownership and continuous development of related intellectual property.
In September 2013, Mean Sea Level initiated the construction of a fully operational 1,000 kW Wave Energy Convertor as well as a 125 kW Hydroelectric Energy Recovery plant. These projects will serve as proof of technology and demonstration plants in South Africa.
