April 2009 - Green Ocean Energy by Manufacturing Community
Green Ocean Energy Ltd. is a renewable energy company headquartered in Aberdeen, Scotland. The company is dedicated to developing technology that will allow the harnessing of energy from the Earth’s oceans in a way that is harmonious to the environment and economically viable, thereby providing a clean and sustainable source of energy. Green Ocean successfully used Autodesk Inventor software in the development of the Ocean Treader and Wave Treader, floating devices that convert the motion of the ocean into clean, renewable energy. Both devices work on the same principle: as the ocean causes the floating arms to rise and fall, the motion is harvested by hydraulic cylinders that generate electricity, which can then be exported back to shore via cable.
