We have accumulated an unique expertise in providing small-scale modular hydropower generating sets suitable for sites as small as a few kilowatts of nominal power, both within man-made water networks (e.g. drinking water or irrigation networks) and natural ones (rivers, lakes).
Our solutions incorporate reliable, low-cost and easy to maintain generating set with the turbine consisting 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.
Key advantages:
- Large cost reduction by using off-the shelf components, differently from a custom-built conventional turbine
- Ease of maintenance, with spare parts readily available
- The use of the developed software to predict how a pump will work as a turbine is the only alternative to extremely resource consuming laboratory tests on thousands of models

Application chart
The minimum required pressure corresponds to 1 bar/10 m of water column, and the available flow rate must be equal or above 4 l/s. According to the pressure and flow parameters, these devices can produce power outputs ranging from a few kilowatts up to hundreds of kilowatts.
