Ocean Power Technologies (OPT), a leader in innovative and cost-effective low-carbon marine power, data, and service solutions, announced it has been awarded a contract for multiple WAM-V®s for delivery to certain Allied Forces. The contract includes the delivery of vehicles, integrated sensors, and operators as a contractor-owned, contractor-operated (COCO) delivery in late Spring 2025.

Due to the sensitive nature of this relationship, terms have not been disclosed.

This award builds on the recent commercial success of OPT’s vehicles and PowerBuoy®s for autonomous Maritime Domain Awareness, Counter Unmanned Underwater Vehicles, and Mine Counter Measure Solutions in North America, Latin America, and the Middle East.

Philipp Stratmann, CEO and President of OPT expressed his enthusiasm about this revenue-generating contract, stating, “We believe this agreement is further proof that our systems form an important part of building out the future of ocean security. Using highly adaptable and attributable unmanned surface vehicles, like our WAM-V, is a cost-efficient force multiplier for surface and seabed warfare efforts for the US Government and other Allied Forces. The dual-use nature of our technologies enables us to provide systems to a broad set of customers.”
