Sweden's most important meeting point for politics, business and civil society kicks off this week: Almedalsveckan in Visby.

Bringing together policymakers, industry leaders, investors and media, Almedalen is where ideas are tested, partnerships are formed and the future of Europe's energy system is shaped, as one of the main topics discussed

This year, CorPower Ocean is on the ground, represented by CEO & Co-Founder Patrik Möller, Chief Commercial Officer Catharina Belfrage Sahlstrand and Head of Communications and Public Relations Linda Nyberg.

Come find us in Visby to talk about why wave energy is a critical piece of a resilient, affordable, and stable energy system - delivering power 24/7. We're looking forward to a week of conversations that matter, and to connecting with everyone working toward a cleaner, more reliable energy future.

🇪🇺 💡 Europe’s energy future will be built on innovation, resilience and homegrown clean power. We’re pleased to share that CorPower Ocean's Chief Commercial Officer Catharina Belfrage Sahlstrand​​ will today be speaking at European Sustainable Energy Week (EUSEW) in Brussels as part of the high-level session: “Energy Security Made in Europe: Scaling Up Innovative Renewable Energy Sources.”

⚡️ ✅ The session brings together innovators, policymakers and investors to discuss how Europe can accelerate the deployment of next-generation renewable energy technologies and strengthen energy security through domestic clean energy production.

🌊 Wave energy has the potential to become a key pillar of Europe’s future energy mix, delivering predictable, complementary renewable power while supporting industrial competitiveness and reducing dependence on imported energy.

​🗣️ C​atharina will shar​e the stage with Greg Arrowsmith (EUREC), Laila K. (European Commission DG ENER), Bruno Tobback (European Parliament), Jorgen Peter Rasmussen (Green Therma) and Lowina Lundström (InnoEnergy​).​
