Building Where the Energy Is

The ocean possesses a vast information gap while also having the potential to be a crucial energy frontier. At Afthon, we are developing hydrokinetic systems to power and sustain a network of ocean sensing and marine intelligence platforms. Here, we aim to meet the growing the demand for critical ocean data while also innovating conventional energy infrastructures – all within a single device.
