Portable renewable power for field teams, outdoor expeditions, and remote communities—designed to turn naturally flowing water into useful electricity where conventional power is unavailable.
HYCORE captures kinetic energy from naturally flowing water and converts it into usable electrical power for off-grid equipment.
A compact generator and power-management system is designed to turn turbine rotation into a practical electrical supply for portable devices.
Power-management electronics help regulate generated electricity so the output can be used by connected equipment more effectively.
HYCORE is intended for streams and rivers where a suitable flow is available, providing a renewable option when grid electricity is out of reach.

Keep essential equipment powered when conventional infrastructure is damaged, unavailable, or too far away.
Reduce dependence on carried batteries and fuel when travelling away from conventional electricity.
Provide an additional renewable source of electricity during extended periods away from the electrical grid.
Support field equipment that needs dependable power while operating far from fixed infrastructure.
HYCORE was designed from first principles with sustainability.
HYCORE is intended to provide a renewable alternative to portable power sources that depend on disposable batteries or transported fuel. Where suitable water flow is available, the turbine can generate electricity without requiring a fuel supply during operation.
The wider HYCORE concept also considers responsible deployment, portability, and reduced dependence on conventional off-grid power sources.
HYCORE is intended to operate where suitable water flow is available. Actual output depends on site conditions and system setup.
