About t the W Water P Power T Technologies O Office ( (WPTO)

WPTO funds cutting-edge R&D to capitalize on new opportunities for hydropower and pumped- storage technologies and drive U.S. leadership in the emerging marine energy field, with the goal

  • f delivering low-cost, reliable power and resiliency to the nation’s electricity grids—which will

benefit Americans from coast to coast. WPTO invests in early- stage research to accelerate development of innovative water power technologies while ensuring that long-term sustainability and environmental issues are addressed. WPTO supports efforts to validate performance and grid-reliability for new technologies, develop and increase accessibility to necessary testing infrastructure, and evaluate systems-level

  • pportunities and risks.

WPTO aggregates, analyzes and disseminates relevant,

  • bjective, technical

information on water power technologies and related issues to stakeholders and decision-makers.
