Pioneering wave energy for a sustainable future.

A leader in wave energy technology for a sustainable world, Seaturns makes waves a practical solution for producing clean, local energy.

Our history

I’ve been fascinated by the ocean ever since I was a kid, and I’ve always wanted to find a way of harnessing the energy of the waves.
I tried several designs, but failed!
In 2017 I created this float and the Seaturns adventure began!
Wave energy is a real alternative for the energy transition in France and Europe, but also for other regions in the world over the next few years.
– Vincent TOURNERIE
Founder of Seaturns & CEO
