Seabreath LLC was established in Parma IT by its founder and inventor Dr. Luigi Rubino, an economist with experience in business administration and a senior independent wave energy researcher for about 40 years, to provide an operational tool for the development of a new wave energy generation system.
It was founded in 2018 and is based on patents and studies at the University of Padua dating back to 2008. These studies have been implemented over the years with new solutions and optimizations that may be the subject of future patents, not only in the wave energy sector but also for other applications in the blue economy.
To minimize fixed costs, the company’s organization currently relies primarily on external resources in outsoucing and focuses on research and development. During the pilot period, human resources will be freelance, with the goal of future direct participation, including an equity stake if successful.
Seabreath is collaborating on development with: a specialty marine design firm, an university with experience on wave energy, a naval electronics design and manufacturing firm, a company specializing in renewable energy instrumentation, a metalworking company and other experts.
Seabreath is a small company with a big and ambitious vision in solving energy and environmental problems.

We also have other conceptual solutions for :
We are seeking funding to continue development with the creation of a 1:1 scale prototype of a floating, modular, multi-chambers oscillating water colums wave energy converter (OWCs WEC) to be tested at sea.
