Eco Factor: Tidal power project envisioned by DARPA to generate 200MW of renewable electricity. Both solar and wind energy generating systems suffer from a common drawback of energy availability throughout the day. Since wind and sun can’t be...

Oceans have tremendous untapped potential for power generation which technology firms have been trying to harness for quite some now. Despite all these efforts, harnessing the Ocean's huge power hasn't been very successful till date. Now an...

Researchers at the Stanford Research Institute International in California have developed a novel mechanism using electroactive muscles to generate electricity from ocean waves. These muscles are made from electroactive polymers, a material that...

We told you about the future prospects of tidal power generators yesterday and here we are with some unique designs that have the potential to eventually power 1,500 homes with 2.25 MW of clean electricity. The project has been undertaken by...
