Ocean waves can help solve the global water crisis
• Worldwide, over 1.1B people lack access to adequate supplies of clean water (i.e. meet UN-mandated minimum requirements)
• Over 2.5 million people die every year as a direct result
• Seawater desalination is an IDEAL solution (70% of earth’s surface is oceans) but is an extremely energy intensive process
• Utility-scale water production requires large, long-term investments in infrastructure that are unaffordable to customers in our target markets
• The alternative solution, diesel driven desalination, is expensive and environmentally unsound

Fortunately, 40% of the most severely affected people in the world live in coastal areas with
access to unlimited “free” energy from ocean waves

Camp Rilea Project Overview
A wave-driven Wave2ETM (electricity producing) & Wave2O
TM (fresh water
producing) demonstration project at Camp Rilea Oregon starting in Q3
or Q4 2015 and lasting for one year pursuant to a U.S. Army Corps of
Engineers Nationwide Permit. Note: Pacific Energy Ventures is advising
RME on regulatory/permitting matters
Two SurgeWECTM wave energy converters will power two containerized
water and electricity production systems
- Wave2ETM rated capacity = 30 kW;
- Wave2OTM rated capacity = 500 m3/day (132,000 gallons)
Low Environmental Impact
- Systems driven by pressurized seawater and fresh water;
- No chemicals used in the SWRO system;
- Brine concentrate is fully diluted before discharge;
- No mooring lines or other components that may endanger wildlife
