Marine Current Turbines

Marine Current Turbines are devices installed underwater that generate electricity by harnessing the movement of ocean currents. Similar to wind turbines, they use blades attached to a generator that spins as the flowing water moves past, converting kinetic energy into electrical power. These turbines operate quietly and can produce sustainable energy continuously, as ocean currents are steady and predictable. They are installed on the seabed or anchored to offshore structures, providing a renewable energy source with minimal environmental impact, helping reduce reliance on fossil fuels and lowering greenhouse gas emissions.
