Pieter de Haas
Founder at Equinox
To be nominated for the Tech Hero Award 2026 is a recognition that ocean current energy is no longer a concept but a technology that has now proven itself in the water. Ocean currents run day and night, and our Mobula® turbine converts that into real baseload power that is always available.
At Equinox Ocean Turbines, Pieter de Haas is working to turn ocean currents into a reliable source of energy. Its Mobula® turbine converts ocean currents into continuously available baseload power. For De Haas, the nomination recognizes an important step in demonstrating that ocean current energy is now a proven technology.
Pieter de Haas is nominated for the Tech Hero Award 2026. The winner will be announced during CIODAY2026.
