I suggest the following:

Add the synonym: Agulhas Current—(Also called Agulhas stream.)

Update swift and strong with: It is one of the swiftest ocean currents with mean speeds of 1.6 m s−1 and peak speeds exceeding 2.5 m s−1. Its total transport of 70 Sv (70 × 106 m3s−1) near 31°S and up to 135 Sv (135 × 106 m3s−1) near 35°S is also among the largest of all ocean currents.

The following image might also be useful to show the proximity of this current to the coastline for the generation of electricity.

The article [http://www.agu.org/eos_elec/000440e.shtml ] indicates a distance of about 1° (in km?) from the coastline.
