Alaska has approximately 40% of the total river energy, approximately 90% of the total tidal energy and approximately 60% of the total wave energy in the U.S.  Because of the high cost of power in Alaska, many communities are considering whether accessing these “hydrokinetic” energy resources to generate electric power is economically feasible and environmentally sustainable.

Hydrokinetic energy devices are being tested in the Kvichak River near the Alaska community of Igiugig and at the Tanana River Test Site near Nenana.

AHERC's mission is to conduct applied research to inform communities, industry, regulators and other stakeholders on the economic and environmental sustainability of emerging hydrokinetic technologies. In addition, we seek to provide practical and innovative solutions for hydrokinetic power generation to help meet Alaska’s energy challenges.
