Japan Successfully Produces Electricity With Kairyu Deep Sea Turbine - ExtremeTech

A deep sea turbine off the coast of eastern Japan has proven capable of producing almost as much energy as a coal plant. 


Kairyu, a massive turbine prototype produced by Japanese machinery manufacturer IHI Corp, sits at least 100 feet underwater. Its anchor line allows it to flex its position to most effectively harness energy from the Kuroshio Current—one of the strongest ocean currents in the world.
