In the booming sector of tidal and hydrokinetic energy, Canada is playing a leading role with its demonstrator and technology incubator test sites. It is also quite active in the development and design of innovative hydrokinetic turbine concepts among which the Oscillating-Wings Turbine (OWT) technology is quite promising. Better adapted to shallow water sites than most other technologies, it offers high energy extraction efficiency while using very simple untwisted rectangular hydrofoils. In tandem or parallel configurations, the hydrofoils are made to oscillate up and down in a vertical plane when submerged in a water current.

在蓬勃发展的潮汐能和水动能领域，加拿大以其示范和技术孵化器试验场发挥着主导作用。它在创新水动力涡轮概念的开发和设计方面也相当活跃，其中振荡翼涡轮（OWT）技术很有前途。与大多数其他技术相比，它更适合于浅水区，使用非常简单的未扭曲矩形水翼，可提供高能量提取效率。在串联或并联配置中，水翼在淹没在水流中时在垂直平面上上下摆动。
