Inseanergy provides green energy to the aquaculture industry using floating solar power plants built on reused fish farming cages. In collaboration with our customers and expertise networks, we aim to develop and deliver zero-emission systems over the next few years that will make aquaculture facilities self-sufficient in energy. Together with the aquaculture industry, we are taking a green leadership role, both in transitioning to a circular economy and in limiting carbon emissions.

Reuse of Fish Farming Pens

Resource scarcity increases the need to extend the lifespan of products and reduce excessive material use, which often ends up in the ocean and threatens vulnerable ecosystems. Excess fish farming cages have both environmental and profitable value for the aquaculture industry. In Norway alone, over 1,000 fish farming cages with a circumference of 120 meters are scheduled for replacement in the coming years. Additionally, several fish farming cages, regardless of circumference, will be replaced. Today, the disposal of fish farming cages is an expense for fish farmers. We facilitate the reuse of fish farming cages (cage rings) as a resource and platform for our floating solar power plants.

Zero Emissions

With significant emissions reductions and, eventually, zero emissions, our solutions contribute to limiting global warming. Inseanergy is developing a system of floating solar cell modules that produce emissions-free energy for the operation of aquaculture facilities. The long-term goal is to create a self-sustaining renewable energy system for a rapidly growing aquaculture industry. The solution will be particularly well-suited for aquaculture facilities in regions with limited power supply and in areas vulnerable to emissions. We will explore opportunities to eventually achieve self-sufficiency for other input factors such as oxygen, heat, and freshwater, as well as provide energy to other parts of the value chain, such as wellboats and service vessels.

Profitable Investment

For aquaculture operators, this will lead to reduced fuel costs and lower maintenance expenses due to reduced generator operating hours. In addition to a significant reduction in operating costs on the feeding barge, there will be less need to refuel diesel on the feeding barge, thereby reducing the need for fuel bunkering or transportation from the mainland.
