Freeflow69 was established in early 2005 with the aim of researching a unique tidal power concept. During this research a more complex hybrid system that would produce power 24 hours a day, seven days a week, was concieved.
The hybrid system combined the strengths of several processes and comprised of 'lagoons with accumulators' and 'tidal turbines'.This was the conceptual "Ocean Hydro Electricity Generator" (OHEG) structurally fixed to the sea bed.The most promising concept which came out of the research is a simply constructed vertical axis turbine, called the "Osprey", being suitable for ebb and flood tides and modular in construction.

Freeflow69 can provide the complete package from the outset to commissioning, providing all the help and interaction the client needs at every stage. The first step is to contact us by telephone or email. If the proposed site is considered viable a site visit will be arranged. This will allow consultation with our engineers to verify the site potential and discuss all available options.
This can seem quite a daunting complex system; if you need further information or guidance on your financial returns get in touch with us here at FreeFlow69. This procedure falls under the governments Renewable Obligation order for renewable energy and is set up to compensate independent generators i.e.
Our version of the Poncelet water wheel is a revolutionary development of a forgotten 1820's technology. It is an efficient device for converting the kinetic energy of flowing water into usable electricity. The wheel is made from stainless steel and is suitable for domestic or commercial sites producing up to 100kW.
Freeflow69 are happy to design water wheels for any site installation, just let us have the site details, water flow and head and we can give advice on the wheel required. Where a water wheel is not the appropriate equipment for a specific location, we can advise on other products and provide the installation design.
