Marine and Hydrokinetic (MHK) technologies

Marine and Hydrokinetic (MHK) technologies harness the energy from movement of water—such as waves, tides, and river currents—to generate electricity. By capturing this natural motion, MHK devices convert kinetic energy directly into electrical power without emitting pollutants. This approach offers a renewable and predictable energy source, especially in coastal and river areas with strong water flows. MHK technologies include wave energy converters, tidal turbines, and river current turbines, all designed to operate reliably in challenging marine environments while providing clean, sustainable energy for communities and industries.
