Overview
Real Ice is seeking to utilise technology already in-use today to reduce the time needed to implement a renewable powered solution to Arctic sea ice melt. There are water pumps already in use today to generate ice for a variety of recreational and commercial purposes (such as platforms for oil rigs, ice pathways in Arctic regions & public ice rinks), although these are diesel powered. The innovation brought forward by Real Ice is in the combination of pumping technology, already used by many today, with the advancements made in the renewables and clean energy sector. We are using this to create a system that can be run solely from renewable energy sources and our primary challenge is to demonstrate the capability to scale this methodology. By doing this, we will encourage governments, large industrial partners and local communities to join us in shaping the way that this could benefit all life in the Arctic. The scope of Real Ice’s work is to prove out our technology at sufficient scale to ignite significant interest with governments, industrial companies and local communities to take the idea to the whole of the Arctic at massive scale. We hope to be a catalyst for the science and technology to be deployed by many large participants.
