Unlike other parts of the world, Mexico has low ocean current speeds (~1 m/s). The Cozumel Channel is an example of a site where such turbines could be installed since average current speeds of the Yucatán Current yearlong are situated in the range of 0.88-1.04 m/s. In order to take advantage of the existing conditions at Cozumel, the development of a hydrokinetic turbine became the focus of…
