Small Hydropower Generator

Hydropower – Powerspout Generator

How would you like to create power for your home or work space with the energy of that water flowing on or near your property already? We found this Australian built power generator and thought our readers would like to know more about this sort of option. If you live off the grid or would just like to generate power to off set your dependence on the grid this could be a great option. Watch the video below to see how it works.

 

From the company:

Even a small stream can generate consistent, clean, dam free, renewable electricity at a price per Watt lower than solar or wind.  A single PowerSpout at a site good enough to generate 1kW can produce enough electricity for a typical house for a year (>8,000 kWh/yr).  The small (18 inches wide), all-weatherPowerSpout PLT is one of the most reliable, cost-effective generators around because we have spent a decade making micro-hydro efficient and affordable.  Just let our customers tell you!
