| “Hydrokinetic Energy” is energy derived from moving water. SST is participating in ocean-based alternative energy projects that utilize wave or tidal energy to produce electrical power for supplementing grid power or for providing power for forward-deployed sensor systems.
SST conducts site assessments, identifies and characterizes routes and landing sites for undersea power transmission cables, provides ocean engineering design support for power generation systems (whether turbines or buoys), develops designs for anchoring power-generating equipment to the seafloor, and installs and maintains the systems. |
SST is participating as part of a team to develop a prototype tidal power system. Current efforts include supporting Verdant Power with their technology in New York at their East River site.
