The U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) is proposing to provide funding to Ocean Renewable Power Company (ORPC) to design, develop, and test hydrofoils with large deflections. The effects of the deflections on cross-flow turbine performance would be evaluated in order to inform design considerations for full-scale water turbines and other marine hydrokinetic devices.
