Ocean Power Technologies

Ocean Power Technologies makes autonomous wave-powered buoys that supply electricity to offshore equipment and edge compute payloads far from any grid connection. Its PowerBuoy systems are deployed commercially for offshore energy, defence and ocean monitoring customers. Its tie to AI data centers is indirect — it powers marine electronics rather than data-center-scale loads.

Ecosystem functionThe longest-standing listed wave power company, relevant here as a supplier of autonomous offshore electricity rather than as a compute play.
