Why hydrokinetic power

A different approach to harvesting river energy.

Conventional hydropower often depends on hydraulic head created through dams, diversion structures, or large civil infrastructure. WEG-3D is investigating direct extraction from flowing water currents.

Helical geometry Twisted blades keep continuous interaction with the flow as the turbine rotates.
Vertical-axis architecture A compact arrangement with flexibility for varied flowing-water environments.
Modular development Diameter, height, module count, rotor arrangement, and generator setup can be tuned.

Who it can benefit

Designed for places where water flow and energy demand meet.

01

Remote & Rural Communities

Potential localized electricity in areas where grid expansion is difficult or costly.

02

Industries Near Water

Local generation opportunities for facilities close to rivers, canals, or water infrastructure.

03

Water Infrastructure

Canals and water-conveyance systems may offer deployment locations after site assessment.

04

Defence & Remote Sites

Additional distributed power where fuel logistics, reliability, and resilience matter.

05

Renewable Developers

Future partnerships for developing and operating hydrokinetic power projects.

06

Public Infrastructure

Potential use in rural electrification, public utilities, and remote infrastructure projects.

The bigger opportunity

A large opportunity inside the broader hydro and renewable market.

India has a substantial small-hydro opportunity, with government sources citing 21.13 GW of estimated small and mini-hydro potential across 7,133 sites. WEG-3D aims to complement that market with distributed systems that use naturally flowing water.
