Hydrokinetic energy contained in tides, rivers, and ocean currents is renewable, reliable,
abundant, and forecastable. Yet despite the long list of pros, a major strike against
this promising, sustainable energy source is cost, stemming from both the challenging
operating environment as well as the technical challenges of device deployment.
With an expected $35 million in funding to dole out to high-risk, high-reward technologies ....
