Series: ADB Data Room: Emerging Areas Sustainable Solutions Initiatives Making Waves: Unlocking Ocean Energy for a Cleaner Tomorrow 29 September 2025 Next-generation wave and tidal energy solutions capture the immense, untapped power of the ocean through advanced designs that deliver reliable, sustainable, and locally sourced electricity. These innovations are critical to diversifying energy systems, reducing fossil fuel dependence, and enhancing resilience, particularly for coastal economies and small island developing states. This webinar will showcase the groundbreaking technologies of Swedish innovators who are leading the way in next-generation wave energy solutions and the pathways they are taking to bring these technologies from innovation to implementation in Asia and the Pacific. The webinar is jointly organized by ADB, the Embassy of Sweden in Manila, and Business Sweden in the Philippines. The knowledge event is the 11th of a series organized by the Emerging Areas Team, Energy Sector Office. The Emerging Areas created under ADB’s New Operating Model aims to operationalize frontier technologies and integrated solutions, foster and drive innovation in policy and operational issues, catalyze thought leadership and future looking bank wide initiatives for future business, and collaborate across departments for Program and Learning Materials Disclaimer The views expressed on this website are those of the authors and do not necessarily reflect the views and policies of the Asian Development Bank (ADB) or its Board of Governors or the governments they represent.
