HYCORE turbine
HYCORE

Built for the field.
Designed for independence.

Flow-Driven Generation

HYCORE captures kinetic energy from naturally flowing water and converts it into usable electrical power for off-grid equipment.

Compact Electrical System

A compact generator and power-management system is designed to turn turbine rotation into a practical electrical supply for portable devices.

Power Management

Power-management electronics help regulate generated electricity so the output can be used by connected equipment more effectively.

Designed for Flowing Water

HYCORE is intended for streams and rivers where a suitable flow is available, providing a renewable option when grid electricity is out of reach.

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.
