About Hydrastorm Technologies
Hydrastorm Technologies Ltd is a Plymouth-based marine technology company focused on propulsion research and development.
Our first programme, MPVXX, was supported through Innovate UK and investigated how internal flow management and controlled geometry can influence propulsion behaviour within compact marine systems.
Founded by former Royal Navy Chief Petty Officer Marc Reffell, Hydrastorm combines operational experience with practical engineering, experimentation and evidence-led development.
The MPVXX research programme has now been completed, with current work focused on intellectual property development, CFD correlation, prototype refinement and identifying future application opportunities.
Hydrastorm Technologies exists to explore engineering questions, test ideas against reality and contribute to the future of maritime innovation.
