Recently, various kinds of renewable ocean energy have been attracting great deals of attention. In Europe, many investigations about usage of ocean energy conducted. Especially the tidal current is suitable for the well stabilized energy, because the density of sea water is larger than the atmospheric density and ,moreover, the tidal current is cyclic and predictable caused by marine ebb and flow by gravity. It is not caused by the arbitrary weather conditions. Since Japan consists of many islands, there are many hopeful and energy rich sites for using tidal current energy in surrounding of Japan. However, tidal current power generation system should be small and efficient because the strait between islands is also highly used as a route of ship transportations. This paper shows the efficient current power generation equipment. The basic structure for high efficiency was examined and the effect was verified by the tank tests.
