Littoral Power Systems, Inc.

Littoral Power Systems, Inc. (LPS) is a United States-based water power technology company headquartered in New Bedford, Massachusetts. It describes itself as addressing the problems of cost, environmental impact and regulatory complexity in hydropower and marine energy by developing, manufacturing and installing products that reduce the time, cost and risk of getting projects built. Its stated mission is to develop clean energy reliably and sustainably, to respect and protect local culture, heritage and values — particularly when working with remote communities — and to change perceptions about water power by offering solutions that are sensitive to the long-term health of aquatic species and ecosystems. The company frames this core principle as "Waterpower for Good" (#W4G). LPS positions itself across the small hydropower and marine energy value chain. On the hardware side it offers three turbine types — Reakt™, TorrStrom™ and FlexStream™ — for small hydropower applications, together with h-Modulor™ systems, modular components designed to fit the common layout, structural and geotechnical conditions encountered when building small hydropower. On the digital side it offers k-IoT™ plant management software, a secure dashboard that integrates data feeds on water availability, weather, operating performance and the latest spot energy prices. Beyond products, LPS provides engineering services through LPS Engineering Services (LPS-E). This arm supports owners, developers, consultants and research teams from early feasibility through design verification and operational optimization, specializing in decision-grade analysis that combines physics-based modeling (CFD/FSI/FEA and reduced-order methods) with data and AI where it adds value. Its AI/ML modeling services turn waterpower datasets into insights for hydropower, tidal and wave energy projects, including short- and long-term energy production forecasting, predictive maintenance and anomaly detection, real-time resource assessment for dynamic environments, and system performance optimization using physics-informed models. Hydropower and marine energy optimization work includes hydropower optimization with state-of-the-art solvers and site characterization using ADCP/ADV and turbulence analysis. The company is small and privately held. Its leadership team includes CEO David Duquette, Vice President Kathie Leighton, Director of Prototyping C. Eben Franks, Senior Scientists Ravi Challa, Ph.D. and Tom Ravens, Ph.D., Project Engineer Henry Schuler and Office Manager Lisa Amaral. LPS presents itself as an emergent renewable energy company that is "increasingly on the path to making a name for ourselves," and it acknowledges that although it is a very small team, its actions affect multiple constituencies. It works with partners and targets owners, developers, consultants and research teams in the hydropower and ocean energy sectors.

Littoral Power Systems, Inc. is a water power technology company based in New Bedford, Massachusetts, United States. Public information about the company is limited, and its own materials describe it as an emergent renewable energy company with a very small team. The company's stated purpose is to address the problems of cost, environmental impact and regulatory complexity in hydropower and marine energy by developing, manufacturing and installing products that reduce the time, cost and risk of getting projects built. LPS has built its offering around two complementary areas: hardware and software products for small hydropower, and engineering and analytical services for hydropower and marine energy. Its product line includes three turbine types — Reakt™, TorrStrom™ and FlexStream™ — for small hydropower applications, the h-Modulor™ family of modular components designed to fit common layout, structural and geotechnical conditions encountered when building small hydropower, and k-IoT™ plant management software, a secure dashboard that integrates data feeds on water availability, weather, operating performance and the latest spot energy prices. Its engineering arm, LPS Engineering Services (LPS-E), supports owners, developers, consultants and research teams from early feasibility through design verification and operational optimization. LPS-E specializes in decision-grade analysis that combines physics-based modeling (CFD/FSI/FEA and reduced-order methods) with data and AI where it adds real value, and it offers AI/ML modeling services that transform waterpower datasets into actionable insights for hydropower, tidal and wave energy projects. Applications include short-term and long-term energy production forecasting, predictive maintenance and anomaly detection, real-time resource assessment for dynamic environments, and system performance optimization using physics-informed models. Hydropower and marine energy optimization work includes hydropower optimization with state-of-the-art solvers and site characterization using ADCP/ADV and turbulence analysis. The company articulates a core principle it calls "Waterpower for Good" (#W4G), committing that wherever it goes, community, environment and stakeholders are bettered. Its mission statement commits it to develop clean energy reliably and sustainably, to understand, respect and protect local culture, heritage and values — particularly in working with remote communities — and to change perceptions about water power by providing solutions sensitive to the long-term health of aquatic species and ecosystems. LPS acknowledges that although it is a very small team, its actions impact multiple constituencies, often profoundly. Leadership listed by the company includes CEO David Duquette, Vice President Kathie Leighton, Director of Prototyping C. Eben Franks, Senior Scientists Ravi Challa, Ph.D. and Tom Ravens, Ph.D., Project Engineer Henry Schuler and Office Manager Lisa Amaral. The company works with partners and targets owners, developers, consultants and research teams in the hydropower and ocean energy sectors. It is privately held; no founding year, founder, parent company or ownership details are provided in the available evidence.

A small, privately held water power technology company focused on reducing the cost, environmental impact and regulatory complexity of small hydropower and marine energy projects, combining turbines, modular systems and plant-management software with decision-grade engineering and AI/ML analysis under a "Waterpower for Good" principle.
