BUT Henry's law tells you that the amount of dissolved gas/litre is proportional to pressure. I.e. if you need 10 litres of seawater/min at surfacelevels, you should need the same amount at depth. So this issue solves it self.
In scuba diving ppO2=1.0 is NOT considered toxic.
In scuba-diving, you plan your dive based on certain factors. One of these is ppO2. Since your exposure to this is limitid the normal limit for recreational diving a limit of ppO2=1.4bar is normally used.
ppO2 = 1.0bar is equal to breathing pure O2 at sealevel.
ppO2 = 1.4bar is equal to breathing pure O2 at 4m depth.
If you use compressed air it has ppO2=20,7% wich means that at 56m you get ppO2=1.4 which is why this is normally the absolute deepst you go on air.
When using EnrichAirNitrox = EAN you have a higher percentage O2, which means that you Maximum Operating Depth MOD becomes less than 56m.
And from there the diver becomes tech-diver with all kinds of exspensive helium-gasses.
LM Glasfibre production of these wings are quite impressive. Allthough its been over a year since I was involved in the project, let me tell tou this:
When I first started out walking among the moulds for these wings its mind-boggeling how big the become. At first I thought 39mester was big, but the 61m meter turbineblade is incredible.
And think about the amount of engergy that a wing is loaded with, when you do a DESTRUCTIVE load-test (I dont think they actually do it on the 61m - but its normally how you test a blade) - KAPOW.
Windturbines really is an impressive industry - something we danes can rightly be proud of.
And the future ramifications of their use makes it even more interesting to be working in the field.
Other more viable source of energy based on a conventional wave-approach from Denmark (as the windmills), can be viewed here:

This project concentrates the waves and leads them through turbines. This should be used as a reference to the flow ankrored underwater turbines.
I still think the underwater turbines are to difficult to maintain, and to expensive to build....

I did not check your calculation at sea-level.
