Key advantages of choosing a pump-as-turbine for small scale hydro power generation

The key advantages of choosing a pump-as-turbine for small scale hydro power generation are:

  • Large cost reduction by using off-the shelf components, differently from a custom-built conventional turbine
  • Ease of maintenance, with spare parts readily available
  • Quick equipment lead time, typically 2-3 monts
  • Available in cast iron or bronze for special applications
  • Certified for use with drinking water
