Ledit système est caractérisé en ce qu'il comprend un une plate-forme ou un radeau (3) permettant de supporter la turbine immergée, ces derniers présentant une poussée inhérente permettant leur soulèvement dans la colonne d'eau, lors de la réduction de la poussée. Ledit ensemble est conçu pour permettre à la turbine associée (1) d'être élevée à la surface de la colonne, ceci permettant d'accéder à la turbine pour des travaux de maintenance.
