small hydro turbine generator

A Micro-Hydro Generator is a type of hydroelectric power system designed to generate power on a small scale. Unlike large-scale hydroelectric dams, these systems do not require a vast water reservoir.

Most all-in-one small-hydro systems sold today have matched the turbine to the generator with a direct drive. Another option is to generate direct current and either use it as-is or convert it to AC when needed through the use of an inverter.

We make each one specifically tailored to your site and energy needs. Sustainably manufactured here in New Zealand in our off-grid workshop using up to 68% recycled materials. PowerSpout turbines are modular so if you have an appropriate water resource installing multiple units has many advantages.

Full plug and play micro hydro kinetics technology for existing canals and waterways. GE Renewable Energy and Emrgy combine their strengths around this high-performing micro hydro technology.

Jack Rit turbine -- a drop-in-the-creek turbine that can generate power from a stream with as little as 13 inches of water and no head. Output from the Jack Rit is a maximum of 100 Watts, so daily output averages 1.5–2.4 kilowatt-hours, depending on your site.

If you''re looking for passive mechanical energy, micro hydro power systems, or putting that canal on your property to work, we got something for you. After reviewing dozens of products on the market, here are the 6

Canyon Hydro designs and manufactures small hydro systems ranging from 4kW to 25MW. Each system is designed and built at our manufacturing facilites in the USA.

The PowerSpout is the latest micro hydro generator from EcoInnovation New Zealand. It is a custom made Pelton turbine attached to a reconnected Fisher and Paykel Smart Drive generator via a robust bearing assembly, all in a weatherproof casing to create consistent renewable electricity.

The LH1000 is specifically designed machine to operate efficiently in low-head sites. It takes advantage of the same generator as the Stream Engine, however the water turbine component uses a low head propeller design.
