Eco Wave Power has completed a feasibility study for a potential wave energy power station at the Port of Ngqura in South Africa, identifying the technical potential to deploy approximately 8.3 MW of installed capacity along the port’s breakwater infrastructure.
The study, conducted in collaboration with Africa Great Future Development Ltd (AGFDL), assessed site conditions, wave resource availability and preliminary system configuration. The findings indicate that the port could support onshore wave energy deployment using existing coastal structures, subject to further development and permitting assessments.
Following completion of the feasibility phase, AGFDL will review the study results in detail before the parties jointly evaluate potential next steps, including project structuring, regulatory pathways and development timelines.
"This feasibility study marks an important milestone in our entry into the African market. The results demonstrate meaningful potential at the Port of Ngqura, and we look forward to working closely with our partners to assess how this project could progress in a responsible and commercially viable manner and becoming the first wave power station on the continent of Africa,” said Inna Braverman,
