Note(s): Given are the details of a Turbine Under the Gulf Stream (TUGS) proposal submitted to the Advance Research Projects Agency (ARPA) under the Technology Reinvestment Project (TRP). The project is to design, build, and deploy the prototypes necessary to demonstrate the economic and technical feasibility of generating electric power from the Gulf Stream The project is based in part on new generator designs and emerging materials technologies that significantly enhance the likelihood of success.
