Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Waterpower is the largest source of renewable energy in the world today, and microhydro is a mature, proven technology that can provide clean, inexpensive, renewable energy with little or no impact on the environment. Serious Microhydro brings you dozens of firsthand stories of energy independence covering a complete range of systems, from household pressure sites to higher pressure installations capable of powering a farm, business, or small neighborhood. Topics include: Low head and medium head sites AC-only systems as well as ones using a battery/inverter subsystem Stand alone power supply or grid intertie setups Hybrid systems (combined with photovoltaics or wind) With all the variables involved in microhydro, there is no “typical” system. These case studies represent the most comprehensive collection of knowledge and experience available for tailoring an installation to meet the needs of a site and its owner or operators. If you are considering building a system, you are bound to find a wealth of creative solutions appropriate to your own circumstances. Serious Microhydro shows how scores of people are achieving a high standard of living from local energy sources with a minimal ecological footprint. It has particular appeal to homeowners, teachers, renewable energy professionals, activists, and decision makers who want to understand the technology from a “hands-on” perspective. Scott Davis is an award-winning renewable energy project developer with decades of experience operating, installing, designing, selling, and teaching microhydro technology. He is a founder and president of Friends of Renewable Energy BC, and the author of Microhydro: Clean Power From Water.

Download or read book Micro hydro Design Manual written by Adam Harvey and published by Intermediate Technology. This book was released on 1993-01 with total page 374 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Micro-Hydro Design Manual has grown from Intermediate Technology's field experiences with micro-hydro installations and covers operation and maintenance, commissioning, electrical power, induction generators, electronic controllers, management, and energy surveys.There is an increasing need in many countries for power supplies to rural areas, partly to support industries, and partly to provide illumination at night. Government authorities are faced with the very high costs of extending electricity grids. Often micro-hydro provides an economic alternative to the grid. This is because independentmicro-hydro schemes save on the cost of grid transmission lines, and because grid extension schemes often have very expensive equipment and staff costs. In contrast, micro-hydro schemes can be designed and built by local staff andsmaller organizations following less strict regulations and using 'off-the-shelf' components or locally made machinery.

Micro Hydro Power System Build Your Own Individual Power Station Welcome to Microhydropower System: Individual Power Generation, a self-help book designed to show you how Microhydropower Systems work and how you can implement one by yourself. As we seek new ways to ensure we have renewable sources at our fingertips, hydropower has made a recent comeback with how reliable it can be. In the first chapter, we will go over some basic information, such as: Why you might want to have a Microhydropower system for your off-grid or on-grid homes The principles behind Microhydropower systems and why their simplicity is amazing The components that make up a Microhydropower system In the second and third chapters, we will be going over determining if it is worth it and how to set up your Microhydropower system. This includes the mathematics to estimate how much electrical power you could gain by using your river, how much power your overall system might need, and very small lesson on how electricity works in both serial and parallel connections. We'll also go over a mockup analysis to see if a power-hungry user might benefit from such a system and what that might take to power. In the last chapter, we will go over some very important topics, such as: Why you shouldn't rush to connect this system to the system already built into your house if you can help it Why it might be better to keep the system as a standalone unit rather than embed it into your current system and why your current system might actually hold this new system back Why you want to check all the local laws and compliance laws before you do any of this on your own Alternative power can be a real hassle to navigate for the few people who can still do it and it helps to have someone who already built theirs share their experiences on what worked, didn't work, and what can go wrong. This book is designed to giving you a helping hand in navigating the territory to find what you truly need in order to make such as system work for you.
