Hydro Power

Single turbine

The vortex turbine makes hundreds of sites possible that were never viable with other technologies. Because of the Smart Concrete foundation design, new sites can be developed without many extra concrete structures.

For a single turbine system, you only need a height difference between the upstream and downstream water level of 1.5 - 5 meters and a flow that is larger than 1 cubic meter per second.

Sudden Drop or Gradual Drop

Single turbine in the river/canal with a sudden drop or gradual drop

In River

For rivers with waterfall or sudden drop of 1.5 - 5 meters
Easy to develop
Minor modifications to river
Time to install: ~1 month, civil works included

On land, short bypass/drop

For rivers with waterfall or sudden drop of 1.5 - 5 meters
Easy to develop
Minor modifications to river
Time to install: ~1 month, civil works included

On land, long bypass

For rivers with a low height difference of up to 8 meters over a distance of 100 meters
Rivers generally characterized by white water and turbulent flow
To assess a project, we require the flow and the head difference of the river over a distance of 100 meters

Multiple turbines

The easily scalable manufacturing and highly flexible, low-head design, allows the turbine to harness the maximum energy potential of your streams.
If you have a canal or river with at least 5 meters over 100m distance (and flow larger than 1 cubic meter), we can install multiple, interconnected turbines which, depending on your drops and flow, can generate up to 2 megawatts or more.
