DOE awarding $35M to 11 projects for hydrokinetic turbine development; ARPA-E SHARKS

Green Car Congress

Hydrokinetic energy is an abundant renewable resource that can boost grid resiliency and reduce infrastructure vulnerability, but it is currently a cost prohibitive option compared to other energy generating sources. The turbine will be designed for power delivery to remote and local grids.

US DOE Awards $37 Million for Marine and Hydrokinetic Energy Technology Development

Green Car Congress

This is a unique approach that seeks to replace lower efficiency, high maintenance, long-stroke linear generator systems. Eliminating these subsystems reduces both capital and operations and maintenance costs and improves turbine reliability. The project will assess the cost of manufacturing these systems at various scales.
