Technology

Deep Green has the unique capability to increase current market
potential with 80 %.

The Deep Green technology converts energy from tidal stream flows into electricity by way of a novel principle, somewhat similar to the posture of a wind kite. The kite assembly, consisting of a wing and turbine, is attached by a tether to a fixed point on the ocean bed. The technology offered by Minesto is lightweight and miniature compared to other tidal solutions. Resulting in cost savings in material, transport, installation, service and maintenance place Minesto in a unique position, both economically and in terms of number of available sites. 

Deep Green can operate cost efficiently at sites with low current velocities and large depths, therefore able to significantly expand total size of the global market for marine energy. Studies indicate that Minesto’s technology is the only one that can utilize 40 percent of the high-potential areas in a cost-efficient manner.
