TIDAL TURBINE CONSTRUCTION

An ongoing partnership with Constructions Mécaniques de Normandie (CMN), a leading world shipyard,

located in Cherbourg, France, will enable the construction of tidal turbines and the development of tidal marine

farms around the world.

TIDAL TURBINES

Modular concept to adapt different depths

Bidirectional operation in tidal condition. No moving of the machine or of blade orientation.

Simple and robust concept reducing manufacturing costs, operation and maintenance

Low sensitivity to the current orientation using cross-flow turbines

Machine adapted to service boats developed by our partners

High impact resistance and excellent recyclability : all metal fabrication

Test of the first tidal demonstrator in France,

on Paimpol Bréhat testing platform, with

ADEME support

Commercial deployment of

tidal turbine farms

Development of a high performance hydrokinetic tidal

turbine

Development of pilot tidal turbine farm

THE HYDROQUEST RIVER SOLUTION

Hydropower from the kinetic energy of water, does

not require fall

Predictable, regular and economic energy

Fast deployment and installation, within few

months. No civil engineering required.

Reliability and robustness of the system,

especially against debris, through the manufacturing

process and proven materials : lifetime over 25

years

Modularity allows adjusting of the number of levels

and the number of hydrokinetic turbines to the

depths of sites

Operating and maintenance is simple, by raising the hydrokinetic turbine in the dry and with built-in monitoring system

Extremely low environmental impact
