Hydrokinetics

Hydrokinetics involves capturing energy from moving water sources—such as rivers, tides, and ocean currents—to generate electricity. Unlike traditional hydropower that relies on dams and reservoirs, hydrokinetic systems are designed to harness water movement directly, often with underwater turbines or devices that convert kinetic energy into electrical power. This approach offers a cleaner and more flexible way to produce renewable energy, reducing environmental impact while utilizing natural water flow patterns. Hydrokinetics holds potential for providing sustainable electricity, especially in locations with consistent water movement, contributing to the diversification of renewable energy sources.
