Easy Hydro

The Easy Hydro team has 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.
