The strong eastward ocean current through the drake passage is about 600x the volume of the Amazon (1.2*10^8 m^3/s vs 2*10^5 m^3/s) and it reliably has some of the highest waves in the world. This alone could probably provide more hydropower than all of humanity's power consumption. OTOH it's in a remote uninhabited inhospitable part of the world. Resolves YES if there is any >1MW power generating station using drake passage currents/waves by 2050.
