Underwater turbines that harness kinetic energy from tidal currents to generate electricity. OpenHydro's design features large-diameter rotors mounted on heavy bases to withstand extreme tidal forces.

An energy storage system that converts surplus alternative energy into hydrogen gas for storage in pipeline networks. Hydrogenics claims this technology offers better energy storage capabilities than utility-scale counterparts.

Electrochemical devices that convert hydrogen and oxygen into electricity to power electric motors in aircraft.

A pilot initiative to blend renewable hydrogen into the existing natural gas network in Markham, Ontario, serving approximately 3,600 customers. The project aims to reduce carbon emissions from the gas network used primarily for heating.

OpenHydro's initiative to develop and commercialize tidal energy generation in the Bay of Fundy, particularly in the Minas Passage and Minas Channel where extreme tidal ranges exist.

Ongoing effort by Automotive Fuel Cell Cooperation to develop and improve fuel cell technology for vehicle applications, supported by $10 million in government funding.

1.5 megawatt tidal turbine designed for testing in the Minas Passage.

Vehicles powered by hydrogen fuel cells that will be used for transportation during the 2020 Olympic Games in Tokyo. Major automakers have plans to release fuel cell vehicles.

Large-diameter tidal stream turbine designed for deployment in the Bay of Fundy. Each turbine is mounted on a 1,000-ton base to secure it against extreme tidal forces.
