Water Power production Systems

Global Energy Group is researching the following water based energy production systems and companies.
We believe in addition to Hydro electric water current production systems there are other ways to enhance their production of power produced. We are pursuing partnering with various reputable companies in this field of power production.

HYDROKINETIC POWER DEFINITIONS

There are two types of hydrokinetic power, current-based and wave-based. Each is described below.

CURRENT-BASED HYDROKINETIC POWER

Currents in hydrokinetic canals use a variety of technologies to generate zero-emissions, renewable energy from water currents. These currents typically occur at a variety of application points:

• River currents (river power known as in-stream, free-flow, open river or run-of-river projects);
• Tidal currents (by-directional tidal power);
• Ocean currents (uni-ocean power); and
• Currents and irrigation canals and other manmade conduits.

Energy is generated from the water currents by a variety of technologies, including:

• Horizontal axis turbines (with no ducts, single ducts and dual ducts);
• Vertical axis turbines (with no ducts, single ducts and dual ducts); and
• Helical turbines of both the vertical and horizontal variety (with no ducts, single ducts and dual ducts)

As the water current passes through the turbine (rotor fan), the turbine will rotate on a shaft that is connected to the generator.

WAVE-BASED HYDROKINETIC POWER

Wave-based hydrokinetic power also uses a variety of technologies to generate zero-emissions, renewable power from wave action. Energy is generated in a variety of ways depending on the technology. Wave buoys generate electricity by riding on the motion of the wave crest and wave trough. This up and down motion can drive water pumps, solenoids, hydraulic systems and electric generators.
