HydroQuest is a leading, renewable energy developer that has built its future on sound engineering, backed up by correlated testing, and proven components with a thorough monitoring philosophy that ensures the lowest adverse effects to the environment. 

The company is currently focused on its proven tidal turbine technology that has reliably produced electricity into Europe’s power grid for over two years. They are now developing the largest potential tidal farm in the world, FloWatt, that will lead to 1GW plus of tidal power generation. The first phase requires seven turbines of 2.5MW capacity and in operation by 2025.
