Problem
Maritime activities such as pile driving, coastal construction, and shipping generate significant underwater noise and pollution, harming marine ecosystems and contributing to the decline of cetacean populations. Current methods for mitigating these impacts are often expensive, inefficient, and lack comprehensive monitoring and alert systems.
Solution
Greenov develops and deploys integrated CleanTech solutions designed to minimize the environmental impact of maritime operations. Their offerings include the SubSea Quieter, an underwater noise and turbidity abatement system utilizing patented inflatable membrane technology, and Whale Alert, a collaborative application that leverages real-time cetacean sightings to prevent ship strikes. Greenov also fosters the Anti-Collision Alliance, a network of organizations committed to reducing accidental collisions through knowledge sharing, innovation, and advocacy. These solutions aim to balance maritime development with the preservation of marine biodiversity.
Target Audience
Greenov serves maritime renewable energy companies, coastal construction firms, port authorities, maritime communities, public works contractors, commercial shipping companies, and offshore racing teams seeking to minimize their environmental impact and comply with evolving regulations.
