On our minds

Dependency on foreign oil Global warming High unemployment

Barack Obama’s $15,000,000,000 per year for clean, renewable energy

Deep Wave Energy, Inc. Confidential

Rising Energy Consumption

We need: More energy Less carbon

Deep Wave Energy, Inc. Confidential

Renewable Sources

Solar – Good, but where to put the panels Wind – Good, but turbines look ugly Geothermal – Good, but not around here Tidal – Good, but we don’t have much Offshore Wind – Very Good, but expensive Wave – Perfect

We need all of the above.

New forms of energy are required

It is estimated that if 0.2% of the ocean’s untapped energy could be harnessed, it could provide power sufficient for the entire world.

Come and Get it

Terawatts of power being wasted Outer Continental Shelf (OCS) or International waters (no permits

needed) Reducing wave heights has

ZERO ecological impact ZERO human impact

Deep Wave Energy, Inc. Confidential

But How

So far away Freezing temperatures Brutal environment Mean wind speed 10 m/sec (22 mph) Top 1% 22 m/sec (50 mph) Huge waves (24m every 100 years)

Design Goals

Capture wave energy 100% human and eco friendly Maintainability Reliability (minimize maintenance) Safety (24m swells and 60mph

winds) Low cost

A “Section” is basically a dock

A “Station” or Power Station

Stations are made up of 1 or more sections(Section can be connected end to end)

A station will grow until it is a navigational hazard (maybe a mile long)

Stations are unmanned except when the hydrogen is being picked up

Stations are anchored to the ocean floor or they have slowly turning props

Power Assuming 3m swell, 10 seconds apart Pressure differential 9400Pa (1.5psi) Flow 4.5 m3/min (160cfm) 710 watts (3/4 of hp) per bag Each bladder can power a small house Operates at full rating 60% of the time 1.2 megawatt per section 20 sections would produce 24 megawatts

or 79 gigawatt hours per year

Deep Wave Energy, Inc. Confidential

Cost of Construction

First Section – $5 million Hundredth Section - $3 million Cost of Construction $2.50-4.00 per

watt A 25 megawatts station ~ $100m After 20 sections, the station pays for

its own growth At $4.00/kg for hydrogen, a station

makes $17 million per year
