HydroQuest - River and Marine Hydrokinetic Turbines
HydroQuest technology: Our technology stands apart from others on the market as it is based on a structure of several crossflow turbines rotating around vertical axes. The units can feature several levels, depending on the depth of water at the installation site. Developed with four renowned French laboratories. 10 years of R&D and 9 patents co-owned with EDF.

Products Details
Efficient hydrokinetic turbines
- No civil engineering needed: fixed to the beds of rivers, estuaries, sea floors or on floating barges.
- Easy to maintain
Benefits
- Excellent yield
- Modular design
- Alternator and transformer system outside of current stream
- Transverse forces canceled out by two columns
