Abstract: The ancient notion of installing turbines directly in waterways, without the use of civil structures, has been reviewed recently. In an early study conducted for the New York Power Authority (NYPA), we reached conclusions regarding the resource and types of kinetic hydroenergy conversion systems (KHECS) which could be utilized. These studies established that a kinetic hydro-energy resource sufficient to warrant the development of devices to exploit it exists in New York State.
