Product Development Approach
Start Small – 5/10/25 kW Systems
Deploy and operate systems
Gain experience, reduce risk
Continue to Scale up –125/250 kW
Simplify the design
Off-the-shelf components
Focus on the System
Water-to-wire
Minimize maintenance issues

Debris Management
Boom for surface debris Primarily protects the
boat rather than the turbine
Have not had an issue with submerged debris More of an issue with
higher constriction
Using trash racks at Canoe Pass

Blade Speed
Tip Speed Ratio – Ratio of Blade Speed to Water Speed Design point is approximately
2.5
Blade Speed is relatively constant based on water velocity regardless of turbine size 3 m/s ~7.1 m/s 2.4 m/s ~5.7 m/s
For a given water velocity the blade speed is relatively fixed for any sized turbine
