Due to the environmental concerns the focus is on clean energy generation globally. Hydrokinetic is one such emerging technology that is clean and abundantly available in Pakistan. Also we have energy crises so in areas where these resources are abundant if fed from locally generated electricity, the load on central grid can be reduced. This paper focuses on a battery-less system for hydrokinetics. PMSG is used and then a rectifier to convert its output to DC. This changing DC is then converted to a fixed 12 volts and regulated. Eliminating storage the output of this converter is fed to a UPS which changes it to alternating current of fixed voltage and frequency.
