    The diagram shows three views of the PowerBuoy. In A., the full length of the PowerBuoy is shown with its solar panels and two wind turbines that power its equipment and batteries. To secure the PowerBuoy in place, three mooring legs attached to lighted floats are anchored to the seabed, as shown in B. The side view of a single mooring leg reaching from the PowerBuoy to a depth of 230 feet (70 meters) is shown in C.
