Easy Hydro offers complete solutions for small run-off-river projects
Only 44% of the hydropower potential in Europe is currently exploited, with the remaining 56% made up of small sites for which the adoption of a conventional full-blown turbine would not be economically attractive. The novelty of the Easy Hydro approach is to reduce the complexity and cost of the installation in order to turn economically feasible sites down to the “Pico” scale (e.g. less than 5 kW of installed power)
Easy Hydro offers reliable, low-cost and easy to maintain hydropower converters specifically designed for Run-off-river sites. In order to achieve this, the turbine consists of a standard water pump with reversed flow direction instead of a specifically designed conventional turbine. This technology allows for conveniently exploiting untapped resources and generating CO2-free renewable electricity without damaging the environment.
