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

Green Car Congress

The goal is to develop an optimal generator for current energy conversion. 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.
