The theory behind hydropower is very simple: water obeys gravity and imparts the gained kinetic energy onto a turbine, which subsequently drives a generator.  The devil here is, of course, in all ...

Building a diy hydroelectric generator from nature is a smart way to create off-the-grid power while also providing a reliable water solution. Using a flowing stream or river, you can generate clean, ...

A hydroelectric generator produces electricity by harnessing the kinetic energy of running water. Now you can not only find stationary larger-scale hydroelectric generators but also portable micro ...

Discover how to build a simple DIY water-powered electricity generator at home using accessible materials. This step-by-step tutorial demonstrates the construction of turbine blades, the assembly of ...

YouTuber [Linguoer] has a knack, and it’s one that we don’t often see on the pages of Hackaday: rewinding and rebuilding dilapidated motors and generators. In the video below, you’ll see [Lin] take a ...

After a near 50 year lifespan, Barron Gorge’s hydro generator insulation systems needed to be rewound and upgraded. The Queensland, Australia based power station has been operating in a World Heritage ...

Japan’s Ricoh has designed a micro hydropower system for sewage plants that could potentially be used in combination with ground-mounted solar or floating PV. The system features a sustainable water ...
