OUR CONVERTERS EXPLOIT SYNERGY OF BOTH KINETIC ENERGY OF SLOW MOVING WATER AND GRAVITY

The power output of our newly patented RIVER POWER PLANT mounted on a patented construction (both fixed and floating on pontoon) generates 100 % clean power about three times more in the comparison on known hydrokinetic power plants with rotary converters at the same conditions. Hydrokinetic energy of river we used for both to compensate friction and boosting rotation. We have invented and developed two basic types of primary energy converters. First one is multistage axial flow turbine with gravity articulated paddles. The second converter is a deep submerged paddle wheel with gravity articulated paddles.

The newly invented primary energy for our 24/7 operation “green” power plant are renewable and environment friendly. All our patents are called to answer the problems caused by low efficiency and high investment costs of the conventional renewable power facilities. Our team have developed and realized a lot of issued patents and patent pending solutions in the field of renewable energy conversion machines.

Below presented patents relate to a hydrokinetic energy harvesting system that is adaptive to changing hydrodynamic conditions to maximize energy harvesting thanks to synergy of gravity and hydrokinetic energy. That is why the velocity of water flow is not the most important factor for technical and economical efficiency of our project.
