By 2017, the partners assembled a 100 kW unit in the form of three 20-m floats with two 11-m blades (two 50 kW generators)."The immersion depth of 50 meters was chosen for safety reasons during <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/typhoons" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#typhoons</a>, when you will not surprise anyone with the 20th wave, although the closer to the surface, the more influential the movement of water masses."The most promising place for installing underwater tidal turbines near Japan is the Japan Current (<a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/Kuroshio" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#Kuroshio</a>) area off the country’s southern and eastern coasts in the Pacific Ocean.

At the same time, the efficiency of tidal power plants is much higher than that of solar farms."Thus, the installed capacity utilization factor (ICUF) for solar farms is only 15%, while for tidal power plants, it reaches 70% and approaches the ICUU of thermal power plants with 80%."After the accident at the <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/Fukushima" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#Fukushima</a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/nuclear" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#nuclear</a> power plant, Japan has problems with developing a peaceful atom.

Gavin Newsom, who once was a leading voice to close the plant, said last year that Diablo Canyon’s power is needed beyond 2025 to ward off possible blackouts as California transitions to solar and other renewable energy sources. “<a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/Activists" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#Activists</a> condemned the extension and noted that the projected <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/costs" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#costs</a> of continuing to run the aging plant are expected to top $6 billion.“’This ill-conceived decision will further escalate financial strain on California ratepayers and extend the threat of a catastrophe at Diablo Canyon,' said <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/KenCook" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#KenCook</a>, president of the nonprofit <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/EnvironmentalWorkingGroup" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#EnvironmentalWorkingGroup</a>.
