Insights
TIME recognition and a working LA pilot lend visible validation to Eco Wave Power's technology and expansion claims.
Eco Wave Power gains notable third‑party validation through inclusion on TIME's 2025 Best Inventions list and by highlighting a real‑conditions pilot at AltaSea in the Port of Los Angeles that the company describes as the first onshore wave energy installation in the United States. The announcement reiterates collaboration with Shell Marine Renewable Energy and prior grid connection work in Israel co‑funded by EDF Renewables IL, creating a narrative of operational progress rather than a theoretical concept.
Risks and dependencies are clear from the disclosed facts: broader deployment depends on successful scale‑up from this pilot, continued partnerships, and execution of the stated global pipeline of 404.7 MW. Recognition by TIME improves visibility but does not itself change technical or commercial risk; the pilot remains the key demonstrator of cost, environmental fit, and grid integration under real conditions.
Watch near term for concrete, monitorable milestones tied to the pilot and partnerships — for example any formal announcements of grid‑connected output, contractual terms with partners, or staged capacity targets that would show progress toward the
Los Angeles, California--(Newsfile Corp. - October 14, 2025) - Eco Wave Power Global AB (publ) (NASDAQ: WAVE) ("Eco Wave Power" or the "Company") is proud to announce that its wave energy pilot project at AltaSea in the Port of Los Angeles has been named to TIME's 2025 Best Inventions list, which recognized 300 innovations worldwide that are "changing the way we live, work, and think."
Eco Wave Power's inclusion was based on TIME's rigorous evaluation process, which considered originality, efficacy, ambition, and impact. TIME solicited nominations from editors and correspondents globally and through an online application process, with particular attention to innovations that address climate change, sustainability, and renewable energy.

"We are deeply honored that TIME has recognized Eco Wave Power as one of the world's Best Inventions of 2025," said Inna Braverman, Founder and CEO of Eco Wave Power. "This accolade validates the significance of wave energy and highlights the potential for sustainable, predictable electricity from our oceans."
The Los Angeles pilot project-the first onshore wave energy installation in the United States-is a real-conditions demonstration, developed in collaboration with Shell Marine Renewable Energy (Shell MRE), and hosted by AltsSea in Port of Los Angeles. The project demonstrates the process of harnessing wave energy through Eco Wave Power's patented floaters attached to existing marine infrastructure such as piers and breakwaters. The system is environmentally friendly, cost-efficient, and designed for rapid scalability, serving as a proof-of-concept for future grid-connected deployment.
"Being selected by TIME is a major milestone not just for Eco Wave Power, but for wave energy as a whole," Braverman added. "Our pilot demonstrates that wave energy is ready for broader deployment, offering sustainable, predictable electricity while helping tackle climate change."
Eco Wave Power has already successfully developed Israel's first grid-connected wave energy station, recognized as a "Pioneering Technology" by the Israeli Ministry of Energy and co-funded by EDF Renewables IL. The Los Angeles pilot complements the Company's global expansion, which includes upcoming projects in Portugal, Taiwan, and India, contributing to a growing project pipeline of 404.7 MW.
