Blue Action Accelerator // Investing in Dolphin Labs - Persistent Wave-Powered Energy at Sea

Updated: Dec 2, 2025

Dolphin Labs is building the ocean’s first subsea satellite constellation, enabling persistent power, data, and communications delivered anywhere on the planet.


A Blue Action Accelerator portfolio company, Dolphin Labs provides Ocean Infrastructure as a Service, enabling real seabed to space domain awareness. Their xNode™ wave energy converter (WEC) transforms constant wave motion into reliable, uninterrupted power, turning remote waters into operational environments for months or years at a time.


Each xNode™ is a self-powered ocean node, generating power at the surface or completely submerged to support AUV operations, surveillance, environmental monitoring, and long-range communications - no fuel, solar, or maintenance required. The result is continuous awareness and distributed sensing across blue waters and critical infrastructure.


Dolphin Labs is bringing the logic of the cloud to the ocean: a distributed, resilient, updateable infrastructure that scales like a constellation, not a platform.

Olivia Brooks, Head of Investments at Blue Action Accelerator, says: “Dolphin Labs is laying the foundation for an ocean powered by itself, enabling real-time environmental monitoring, continuous surveillance, and reliable offshore infrastructure. What Rolle and his team are creating is rapidly expanding access to sea-based, renewable energy, powering sectors such as shipping, defense, conservation, and research. We are thrilled to welcome them to Blue Action Accelerator and support them on this exciting journey.”

With a constellation-scale vision and a team focused on engineering for the deep end, Dolphin Labs is positioning wave energy as the core power and data layer of the autonomous ocean.
