TideForge is developing an integrated offshore platform that turns the steady force of ocean currents into baseload energy, desalinated water, and cooling for the infrastructure of the AI era — all in one circular system.
Predictable, around-the-clock energy harvested from ocean currents — a firm renewable resource that doesn't stop when the wind does.
On-platform desalination converts seawater into a clean freshwater supply — turning a coastal resource constraint into resilient capacity.
The ocean is a vast natural heat sink. TideForge channels it to cool data infrastructure efficiently — siting compute where power and cooling already meet.
Designed as a loop rather than a line — energy, water, and cooling reinforce one another, so the platform does more with what the ocean freely provides.
Steady ocean flow becomes continuous mechanical and electrical energy.
That energy drives desalination and on-site systems without onshore demand.
Seawater carries away heat, enabling efficient offshore data infrastructure.
Power, water, and compute capacity flow back to the grid and the coast.
Off the Carolina coast flows one of the most powerful, persistent currents on Earth — a renewable engine that never switches off.
TideForge is positioned to develop offshore infrastructure in U.S. federal waters — building domestic energy and water capacity from a resource that's available every hour of every day.
TideForge is a founder-led marine hydrokinetic infrastructure company based in Farmville, North Carolina, developing an integrated offshore platform that unites energy generation, desalination, and data-center cooling in a single circular-economy model.
Our goal is straightforward: turn one of the planet's largest untapped resources — the constant motion of the ocean — into reliable American power, water, and compute capacity.
