Natural Currents Energy Services

Natural Currents Energy Services, LLC is a developer and installer of hydro-electric systems. They produce scalable underwater turbines designed to capture energy from the tides of rivers and oceans. They hold Federal Energy Regulatory Commission ("FERC") energy development permits at 10 sites in the US, roughly 25% of the total tidal zone permits granted by FERC. The company has designed two models of turbine, the Red Hawk Tidal Power Generator and the Sea Dragon Tidal Turbine.

Natural Currents has partnered with the City College of New York to assess sites with potential for tidal power development. The 18 month study is funded by grants from the New Jersey Department of Transportation and the University Transportation Research Center.^[1]
