ride the tide

Introducing the world’s first personal hydrogenerators.

What is a Hydrogenerator?

Think of it like a wind turbine that spins underwater. Water is 1000x as heavy as air, so it carries much more energy.

Millions of people live next to flowing water, like sailors, fishermen, and coastal communities. Sitkana’s products allow people to access this predictable daily energy.

We have something for everyone.

CHINOOK

Individuals on Tidal Currents

DORADO

Sailors

ORCA

 Frequently Asked Questions

  • Our products range from the Dorado (20W) to the Orca (10kW+).

    The Orca can be scaled to over 100kW if the site is suitable.

  • Each device has a power cord connected to the boat. You can run this directly to a battery or use it on-demand.

  • The Dorado requires no equipment or installation. You simply hook the line to an aft cleat and toss it overboard.

    The Chinook requires a boom or small crane.

    The Orca is installed in minutes with a removable anchor. Installation requires a vessel with a crane, like a seiner.

  • Our rotors have no blade tips and spin slowly. The system is designed to be wildlife friendly.

  • Plastic lasts for a hundred years in the ocean. This makes it bad for pollution but great for marine applications.

    Our devices will be continuously recycled every few years, so they will never have time to break down into microplastics. Eventually, we will source our materials from the oceans.

    All devices will be recycled by Sitkana. We will have zero plastic waste, ever.

  • Devices are easily accessible so they can be routinely lifted and power-washed.

    When the barnacles & algae significantly reduce performance, devices will be replaced & recycled.

  • We need all units back so we can recycle them. Nothing lasts forever. When your device breaks, Sitkana will replace it for a small fee.

  • We expect the DORADO & CHINOOK to shipped by 2025, and the ORCA the following year.
