It can mainly be described as a large distensible tube, made out of rubber, closed at both ends and filled with water. The Anaconda tube is designed to be anchored just below the sea's surface, with one of its ends facing the oncoming waves.

There were plants residing on the bottom of the ocean, plants who sway back and forth, as the water moves around them. So, BioPower Systems from Australia thought that making an under-ocean energy collecting system whose movement resembles with the one […]
