About

oasis power buoy

The Oasis Power Buoy is the world’s first in-field charging buoy. This will enable cost-effective clean energy solutions and put the UK at the forefront of green maritime offshore charging.

Maritime decarbonisation is essential to meet net zero 2050 targets.

The International Maritime Organisation (IMO) agreed binding targets in April 2025 to reduce greenhouse gas emissions from ships, the first industry with internationally mandated emission reduction targets.

Oasis is determined to be part of the solution. To do this our products must be safe, reliable and sustainable. They must be ready for the harsh offshore environment and work seamlessly year after year.
