HYDROKINETIC ENERGY ADVANTAGES

For the Environment:

  • No dams
  • No obstruction to species migration
  • No flooding
  • No visual impact
  • No noise pollution

For the health of our Planet:

  • No green house gas emissions during operation
  • Minimal green house gas emissions during construction
  • Clean, renewable power & environmentally compliant technology

For Growing Communities:

  • It’s flexible; easy for remote places with low power needs – it can grow as they develop.
  • It can be well adapted to surrounding communities.
  • Low investment.

For Developers and Independent Power Producers:

  • Competitive cost per kWh compared to other renewable energy production options
  • Pre-manufactured modular system
  • Virtually no civil engineering work required
  • Short construction timeline – fast cash in-flow
  • Power and energy are simultaneously available (unlike wind and solar!)
  • 10-year maintenance free operation
  • Designed for interconnected or isolated electrical grids
  • Positive pre-feasibility study on more than one site
  • High availability and high usage factor (unlike wind and solar!)

The TREK Turbine is suitable for many river sites, throughout the world.
