Verdant Energy has been using the New York’s East river to test their design since 2012 with multiple iterations. They’ve demonstrated a triangular configuration with 100kwh production tested. They predict the configuration can do 1,050kwh. Not sure how many they would install, but the East river has a very strong tidal current. The original test turbines were damaged by the current. The gen5 were undamaged. https://www.verdantpower.com/projects

kWh is a measure of energy; kW is a measure of power. (Power is a more relevant sizing measure for a generator.)

Fair, I know better, one of these days I’ll remember ;) Those are both the power numbers, not the generated numbers.
