Team Spirit

Technology Driven, People Powered

In Havkraft, people are our greatest asset. We combine solid disciplinary understanding within hydrodynamics, electro/automation, renewable technologies, research and business development, but what really makes us strong is the culture we build together.

We believe in openness, collaboration and engagement, and we know that good solutions appears in the intersection of good perspectives. Therefor we focus on the TEAM, not only the technology.

Our Story

Built on Experience, Driven by Innovation

Havkraft was founded in 2009 with a vision to harness energy from ocean waves. The company’s founder initiated the development by designing and building several prototypes, some tested in laboratories and others at sea – always with support from experienced engineering partners.

The early years were about exploring possibilities and demonstrating that the concept could work. This required time and resources, and as a one-man venture without in-house technologists, progress naturally moved at as lower pace.

In 2021, Havkraft hired its first dedicated employee, and since then development has accelerated significantly. We have built a strong team and are now working systematically and purposefully on the qualification, certification, and advancement of the technology. With a solid history, valuable experience, and a professional development path in place, we are today better positioned than ever to realize the full potential of wave power.
