This in-stream hydrokinetic device, developed by Oceana Energy, is designed to generate energy by leveraging natural water flow in a river. Oceana Energy tested the device in 2014 at Naval Surface Warfare Center, Carderock Division's David Taylor Model Basin in West Bethesda, Md. During the testing in the model basin, the device was able to generate up to 8.15 kilowatts of power. The device's rotational rate was calculated by placing a single black fin on the device that could be tracked while viewing video playback. (photo provided by Oceana Energy/Released)
