I hope there will be a lot more of these.
I was thinking about The University of Alabama "Crimson Tide"

Re: Bermuda gets world's first underwater turbine generator
Hey! I think this is a great idea.
If this really takes off....which I hope it does.....
This brings to mind the wind turbine project of Nantucket Sound:

I'd bet scientists would shut it down because they believe it bothers some benign species due to minute changes in ocean currents, mechanical noise etc.

Cape Wind is a proposal for America’s first offshore wind farm to be located on Horseshoe Shoal in Nantucket Sound, six miles offshore Hyannis Port, Cape Cod.
Cape Wind will provide three-quarters of the electricity used on Cape Cod and the Islands of Martha’s Vineyard and Nantucket in average conditions.
