Hydrokinetic energy is the energy generated from the movement of water, particularly in rivers, tides, and ocean currents. This form of energy harnesses the kinetic energy of flowing water to produce electricity, making it a renewable and sustainable energy source. Unlike traditional hydroelectric power, which relies on dams, hydrokinetic systems can operate in free-flowing water without significant environmental disruption. Devices such as underwater turbines or buoys are commonly used to capture hydrokinetic energy. These technologies convert the motion of water into mechanical energy, which is then transformed into electrical energy. As a clean energy option, hydrokinetic energy contributes to reducing greenhouse gas emissions and promoting energy independence.
