CeraMem

CeramHyd is a material science company that develops innovative environmental products based on its proprietary membrane platform technology, the CERAPEM. The CERAPEM is a disruptive membrane made of ceramic particles with outstanding features: it is flat, flexible, it looks and feels like polymeric (plastic) membranes and is exceptionally robust. It has great conductivity and is recognized as a game changer for highly efficient ion exchange membrane-based electrochemical processes.

Vortex Hydro Energy is a company that received a STTR Phase I grant for a project entitled: Havesting Hydrokinetic Energy Using Vortex Induced Vibration and Fish Biomimetics. Their project will transition an innovative 1-5 kW energy generating system from the University of Michigan (UM) Marine Renewable Energy Laboratory (MRELab) towards the commercial market place. The system is based on a system of cylinders that are made to oscillate by water currents at velocities as low as 1-2 knots (water turbines require 5-7 knots). It is through this mechanism that the converter harvests the hydrokinetic energy. This project, if successful, will yield a new means of harvesting energy from low velocity currents. Additionally, this system is believed to have fewer impacts on aquatic wildlife than turbine based systems.

Rentricity is a producer of clean, renewable energy from hydrokinetic applications in drinking water distribution systems, industrial water systems, and wastewater systems.

Choren Industrietechnik is an engineering service-provider and licensor, offering the planning, layout and installation of systems for synthesis gas generation according to the CCG process.

Tidal power has a vital role to play in meeting increasing demands for clean energy throughout the world. Tides represent a vast, predictable renewable source of energy. Pulse Tidal is developing a technology based on hydrofoils moving beneath the surface to generate electricity from tides in shallow waters. With this approach it is the company's aim to provide renewable energy economically at the point where it of greatest value.n

OpenHydro designs and manufactures marine turbines to generate renewable energy from tidal streams. The company's vision is to deploy farms of tidal turbines under the world's oceans - silently and invisibly generating electricity at no cost to the environment. OpenHydro's technology aims to enable the ocean's immense energy to be harnessed for the benefit of all.
