Wallis and Futuna gkinetic energy ltd

Who is gkinetic energy?

GKinetic Energy Ltd is an Irish-based company developing innovative hydrokinetic turbines producing clean energy from canals, rivers and tidal flows. Its unique, patented technology relies at its core on placing an intentional obstacle, like a buoy, between two turbines allowing them to generate significant energy also in low flows.

Is gkinetic energy a strong EU-based Innovative Technology?

Many projects exist in the EU to move forward along this path, and GKinetic Energy is a perfect illustration of a strong EU-based innovative technology. GKinetic Energy Ltd is an Irish-based company developing innovative hydrokinetic turbines producing clean energy from canals, rivers and tidal flows.

Who is gkinetic?

GKinetic is an irish startup operating in the sector of hydrokinetic turbines. Its ambition is to improve the existing hydro devices, exploiting tidal energy to offer clean, predictable energy from free-flowing water, with minimal impact on the natural environment.

How does gkinetic work?

GKinetic are leading developers of innovative, patented turbines that work with nature to generate 100% clean, predictable energy from free-flowing water. We offer a clean, sustainable alternative to diesel generators and unlike competing hydrokinetic devices, our turbine works at average, lower flow speeds.

What does Wallis & Futuna do?

About four-fifths of the population of Wallis and Futuna engages in subsistence farming, growing yams, taros, bananas, and other food crops. Some livestock is raised, mostly pigs.

What is gkinetic technology?

GKinetic’s technology is ideally suited to island applications. The device is floating and can be moored like a boat. Due to its innovative design, it does not require blocking flows or major civil works. It can be deployed in sites as shallow as 1.8m.
