HYDROKINETIC POWER GENERATION
100 MW POWER PURCHASE AGREEMENT | AKOSOMBO, GHANA
Ghana has emerged as the first location for Zoetic’s hydrokinetic power solutions. Zoetic’s management has worked in partnership with Togbe Afede XIV, now Director of Zoetic’s Ghana operation, to promote the technology and to negotiate a power purchase agreement with the Electricity Company of Ghana to bring new sources of hydropower to Ghana beginning in 2016.U.S.-based Zoetic Global deploys innovative clean technologies that address the most serious challenges facing people and the planet.
Zoetic is preparing to outfit the Akosombo Dam, located on the Volta River in Southeast Ghana, with an array of hydrokinetic turbines. These turbines are rapidly deployed and utilize existing infrastructure thus accelerating the pace to achieve additional output.
Renewable energy has skyrocketed over the past decade, particularly in hydropower which harnesses energy stored in moving water. 76% of all renewable global energy is hydroelectric. In fact, total hydropower production worldwide has increased by 45% since 2004 — up 4% in 2014 alone.
Zoetic Energy is a project developer utilizing hydrokinetic turbines to generate substantial power in rapid fashion.Our focus is to capture the enormous amount of potential energy in the outflow area of dams.
