The Application of Mini Hydro Generator

In recent years, in the field of renewable energy, apart from the wide application of solar and wind energy, hydropower has gradually attracted widespread attention as a new type of clean energy.

It is well known that large hydropower stations are costly, have strict construction conditions, and only rivers with large power generation capacity and particularly strong water flow are suitable for construction. Mini hydro generators are on the rise due to their low cost and wide applicability. It has a low requirement for water flow, with a power starting from 1kw, and can be installed in small streams with low flow rates.

Mini hydro generators, like photovoltaic panels and wind turbines, are all small devices that generate electricity using clean energy from nature. Therefore, it will not damage the environment and is fully in line with the current social values that advocate protecting the green ecology.

Unlike large hydropower stations that require a large amount of water flow and drop to generate electricity, mini hydro generator can be installed in small rivers or streams. There is no need to build dams or large reservoirs, nor to carry out extensive renovations to riverbeds or streams. It only requires a small water intake structure at an appropriate position on the river, allowing water to flow through turbines and safely back to the waterway to generate electricity safely.

The service life of mini hydro generator can reach 25 to 30 years, and their maintenance costs are extremely low. Its simple design means less wear and tear and less need to replace parts. It is compact in size, operates with low noise and does not require a large space for installation.

The mini hydro generator is particularly suitable for areas rich in river resources. If you are interested in small hydroelectric generators, please feel free to contact us at any time. We can help you choose the installation location and design a customized solution.
