CETO
Sign in to savethumb|Artistic rendering of CETO 5 unit CETO is a wave-energy technology currently being developed by Australian company Carnegie Clean Energy and its international subsidiaries. CETO is a fully submerged device that converts kinetic energy from ocean swell into electrical power, and in some cases directly desalinates freshwater through reverse osmosis. The name is inspired by the Greek ocean goddess, Ceto.

thumb|Artistic rendering of CETO 5 unit CETO is a wave-energy technology currently being developed by Australian company Carnegie Clean Energy and its international subsidiaries. CETO is a fully submerged device that converts kinetic energy from ocean swell into electrical power, and in some cases directly desalinates freshwater through reverse osmosis. The name is inspired by the Greek ocean goddess, Ceto.
The technology was developed and tested onshore and offshore in Fremantle, Western Australia. In early 2015 a CETO 5 production installation was commissioned and connected to the grid. all the electricity generated is being purchased to contribute towards the power requirements of HMAS Stirling naval base at Garden Island, Western Australia. Some of the energy will also be used directly to desalinate water.
