ORPC Information

ORPC Improves people’s lives and their environment through renewable, sustainable energy solutions. A global leader in marine renewable power system technology and project solutions, we solve the problem of high cost, environmentally risky electricity generation in remote "islanded"​ communities by harnessing the power of ocean and river currents to create clean predictable locally produced renewable energy. Worldwide we are the only company to have built, operated and delivered power to a utility grid from a marine renewable tidal project, and to a local microgrid from a marine renewable river project. ORPC is committed to working with local partners and creating local economic opportunities. We are commercializing our proprietary TidGen® and RivGen® Systems using our patented core technology platform, the turbine generator unit, or TGU. Using our TidGen® Power System, ORPC built and operated the first revenue-generating, grid-connected, non-barrage tidal energy project in the Americas in 2012.
