TidalWatt’s turbines are uniquely designed to capture the hydrokinetic energy associated with underwater currents. Unlike wind turbines, this technology is not based on wind/aeronautical mechanisms — ...

Dutch startup Equinox Ocean Turbines has secured new funding to accelerate the development of its innovative jet-sized ...

Energy companies in the UK see potential from underwater turbines that produce electricity. The energy is consistent and predictable; companies can model output 100 years in the future.

The underwater design also eliminates the issue of evaporation, which saps water, and thus energy, from pumped hydro reservoirs. Installation is readily scalable, too.

For example, the company Scottish Power tested a 100-foot (30 meters) underwater turbine in ocean waters off the Orkney Islands in 2012, CNN reported.

Experiments with these big hollow spheres are proving an innovative source of energy storage that could power millions of homes.

Victoria's government recently made a pivotal move for the environment by green-lighting Marinus Link, a subsea and ...

In 2022, the U.S. Department of Energy (DoE) announced plans to explore the potential of underwater turbines, aiming to make them more efficient and cost-effective.

Wind power has been rising significantly in recent years, and now accounts for about 8% of the world’s energy production. By the end of the decade, it will be the second-largest renewable source ...

Some homes in Singapore could be powered by the sea in future - if scientists manage to prove that tidal turbines in nearby waters can help meet the country’s growing electricity needs. From next ...
