Carnegie and Hewlett Packard Enterprise extend Collaboration Agreement

Carnegie is pleased to announce a two-year extension of its collaboration agreement with Hewlett Packard Enterprise (HPE), a global leader in information technology. This partnership focuses on advancing Carnegie’s CETO wave energy technology by bringing together HPE’s expertise in artificial intelligence and high-performance computing with Carnegie’s expertise in wave energy control and operations. The companies have been working together since 2020, with HPE’s research group, Hewlett Packard Labs, playing a key role. The agreement between Carnegie and HPE is for an additional two years, to 15 November 2026. All other terms and conditions of the agreement remain in effect.

Carnegie is pleased to share updates regarding its activities at the HPE Discover conference in the USA, including a CEO presentation during the conference, CETO example used during the keynote presentation, and CETO animation and model wave tank displayed in the HPE Discover Showcase for the 14,000 people in attendance at the Sphere and Venetian Exhibition Centre in Las Vegas.
CEO Jonathan Fievez and Chairman Terry Stinson represented the Company at the prestigious conference, held at the Venetian Expo Centre in Las Vegas. The event showcases latest advancements in artificial intelligence (AI) and supercomputing and is a key technology and AI event in the USA.

During the first day, CEO Jonathan Fievez joined an esteemed panel featuring AI leaders Trish Damkroger (HPE SVP of HPC & AI) and Dr. Prith Banerjee (CTO of ANSYS) to discuss how AI is revolutionising industries and driving innovation. The panel delved into the convergence of AI, cutting-edge technologies, and industry-specific expertise, discussing the potential for transformative change.

Carnegie’s CETO wave energy technology is also prominently displayed at the HPE Discover Showcase, where over 14,000 attendees had the opportunity to explore the future of tech.

Located in a notable position at the front of the Showcase, CETO captivated the audience with the CETO animation, developed by Spatial Media, displayed on a large screen and accompanied by a wave tank display demonstrating CETO in action and introducing the technology’s unique features. These visual representations provided attendees with a deeper understanding of the technology’s potential to transform the renewable energy landscape globally.

Carnegie’s invitation to participate in this event highlights the valuable ongoing collaboration with Hewlett Packard Enterprise (HPE) to harness the power of AI and supercomputing to increase the energy generation of the CETO wave energy converter technology. Carnegie continues to drive innovation and accelerate the global transition to clean energy through impactful relationships and collaborations.

Following successful validation of the AI-based reinforcement learning controller during previous tank testing, the Company is now working towards implementing the controller as part of the ACHIEVE Programme’s CETO deployment in Spain.

MoorPower Winter Deployment

MoorPower redeployed for winter and generating electricity! Yesterday’s calm seas provided the ideal conditions for the redeployment of our MoorPower Demonstrator in North Fremantle, Western Australia.

Building on the successful validation completed during the initial deployment phase, this next phase will gather further data that reinforces that design and modelling validation work. We’ve also upgraded the MoorPower system with extra sensors to capture even more valuable data.

This deployment will deliver additional evidence of MoorPower’s commercial readiness, as winter brings the increased and varied wave conditions we expect to see in commercial deployments.

MoorPower’s First Operational Review

  • MoorPower Demonstrator achieves goals during its initial operational phase, signalling ability to meet commercialisation pathway targets
  • Over 2,000 hours of operations data gathered and analysed
  • Commercial aquaculture partner’s feeding barge motion and energy consumption data gathered and analysed
  • Core design proven with MoorPower modules functioning as predicted
  • Results validate power take-off architecture common to both CETO and MoorPower
  • MoorPower numerical models validated using Demonstrator performance data and commercial feeding barge motion data, providing confidence in Carnegie’s ability to forecast the performance of the Commercial MoorPower System for a variety of barges globally
