Natural Currents Energy Services, 

LLC; Notice of Preliminary Permit 

Application Accepted for Filing and 

Soliciting Comments, Motions To 

Intervene, and Competing Applications 

January 29, 2009. 

On November 6, 2008, and 

supplemented on December 15, 2008, 

Natural Currents Energy Services, LLC 

filed an application, pursuant to section 

4(f) of the Federal Power Act, proposing 

to study the feasibility of the Wards 

Island Tidal Energy Project located in 

the East River, off the south point of 

Wards Island in Hell’s Gate in New York 

County, New York. The project uses no 

dam or impoundment. 

The proposed project would consist of 

a hybrid generating station using solar, 

wind, and tidal power generators. The 

preliminary permit for this project will 

only deal the hydro portion of this 

project and would consist of: (1) A 

bridge approximately 60 feet-long 

leading to, (2) a barge-mounted power 

module equipped with, (3) four 

integrated 24 kilowatt vertical-axis 

helical turbines, for a total installed 

capacity of the tidal component of 96 

kilowatts, and (4) interconnection 

transmission lines approximately 50 feet 

in length. The tidal component of the 

project is estimated to have a minimum 

annual generation of 420.5 megawatthours per year. Power generated by this 

project would contribute to the microloop utility grid to be developed on 

Wards Island for servicing the power 

needs of the public recreation and park 

facilities located there.
