The company is developing and commercializing a unique renewable energy technology that harnesses ocean currents and tidal streams and converts it into emission-free electricity using underwater sails.
Sails have the potential to surpass any other tidal technologies under development as regards extraction efficiency, prospects for cost reduction, and acceptability. The energy converter is a series of underwater sails, affixed to wires strung across the tidal stream at an angle. The sails are driven back and forth by the tidal flow between two stations, at one of which the generator is installed.
