GMax Tidal Energy

Locations & Deployment Strategy

GMax Tidal Energy is developing one of the most ambitious near shore clean power and offshore compute portfolios in the United States. Our first 12 utility interconnection proposals can potentially establish a scalable foundation for deploying 25–100 modular GMax Vessels (per location)—each delivering continuous baseload tidal power and optional integrated offshore Data Center capacity. These deployments are strategically positioned 3–12 miles off the U.S. East Coast, where predictable ocean current resources, proximity to major load centers, and favorable environmental bathymetry create ideal conditions for long term clean energy production and sovereign grade digital infrastructure to private customers

East Coast Deployment Corridor:

GMax’s initial development launch corridor spans from Maine to Cape Hatteras, forming a unified, multi-state clean energy and offshore clean-compute network. The planned sites include:

Maine— cold water, high velocity tidal corridors ideal for early stage baseload generation
Nantucket Island— premium offshore real estate for combined energy + data center deployments
Connecticut— proximity to ISO NE load centers and coastal substations
Long Island Sound— protected waters with strong interconnection pathways
Montauk Point— gateway to NYISO and high demand downstate markets
Atlantic City— strong utility access and industrial scale grid demand
Cape May— ideal for multi-vessel clusters and private buyer data center modules
Cape Hatteras— powerful, consistent current flows supporting larger scale deployments

Across these locations, GMax is planning a combined aggregate of 1,375 MW of continuous, carbonfree baseload clean tidal power—delivered directly to regional utility substations TBD.

Clean Energy Delivered Through VPPA Structures

GMax’s power output is contracted through Virtual Clean Power Purchase Agreements (VPPAs), enabling utilities and corporate buyers to secure long term, 24/7 clean energy “electrons” without land use, grid congestion, or intermittency challenges.

Each GMax Vessel provides:

3 MWof continuous tidal baseload
Predictable, clean electricity output aligned with tidal cycles
Zero carbon generation with no visual impact from shore

Direct delivery to utility substations through existing grid pathways

1^st Deployment Launch Scale: 25–100 Modular GMax Vessels (per location)

GMax’s modular architecture allows each site to scale from pilot clusters to full commercial clean energy fleets:

25 Vessel Arrays— ideal for early stage utility & private compute partnerships
50 Vessel Deployments— mid-scale baseload generation for regional grids
100 Vessel Fleets— large scale clean energy hubs supporting both utilities and private compute customers.

Each vessel can be custom built to operate as energy only, compute only, or hybrid, depending on buyer requirements. Adding the option of the GMax Hydro-Integrated-Peak-Power Storage System (HIPP), will also enable “constant 24/7” peak-power clean energy generation.

Offshore Data Centers for Private Buyers

GMax can safely integrate 10,000–50,000 sq ft of offshore data center clean-powered capacity per vessel, enabling:

Private compute clusters
AI/ML environments
High density cooling using unlimited seawater or desalination options
Secure offshore isolation with digital security observation
Zero land use, with options for fiber-optic infrastructure connectivity
Secure customer staff transportation with on-board access log
Unobstructed Top Deck Antenna placement, Etc.

These data center modules can also be deployed independently or co-located with energy vessels, creating sovereign grade offshore compute campuses.

Deal Structures & Financing Models

GMax is beginning to work with utilities, corporate buyers, and private compute clients through flexible commercial structures, including:

Concession type lease agreements
Long term VPPA Clean Energy contracts
Hybrid clean energy + clean compute purchase models
Creative infrastructure finance structurestailored to buyer needs

These models support predictable long-term revenue streams while enabling rapid deployment across multiple jurisdictions.

A Unified East Coast Clean Energy & Compute Network

With 12 interconnection proposals going into “exploratory discussions”, GMax is building a first-of-its-kind offshore infrastructure corridor- with a planned deliverable of:

1,375 MWnameplate value of continuous clean power
25–100 modular vessels per location
Integrated offshore data center capacity
Zero land use, zero-emission baseload clean energy
A scalable platform for utilities, and private buyers

GMax is redefining how coastal states access clean energy and how the next generation of digital infrastructure is built.
