Carnegie Wave Energy
The CETO wave energy system is quite 
different compared to most other wave 
energy technologies around. 
This system consists of submerged water 
pumps (driven by the interactions with 
the ocean waves) that pumps pressurised 
seawater to land. 
On land is the pressurised seawater used 
for both electricity generation (with a 
conventional Pelton wheel) and production of desalinated 
water (through reverse osmosis). 
The CETO technology is currently demonstrated off the 
Garden Island in Western Australia. 
The company Carnegie Wave Energy will own and ope-
rate all future CETO project on the southern hemisphere, 
and on the northern hemisphere will CETO projects be 
joint ventures with EDF Energies Nouvelles, a subsidiary 
of the French utility EDF.
