A power-generating system using sea current and sea anchors provides a constant source of renewable clean energy. The device will not disturb the environment and have relatively low maintenance requirements. The device will not disturb the flow of traffic on rivers and will not interfere with maritime activities. The system will also be self contained so that it will be relatively easy to move the device, if needed in the event of extremely inclement weather conditions.
