Hey guys,
I am wondering what is the best type of mini hydro power plant to produce between 1 and 5Kw of energy.
From what I understand most micro generator needs high head, and they take advantage of the relief (since power=head*flow*g)
I am looking at an area where the head is very "low", I don't have a precise value for the flow, but its small canal.
(Ideally It will be cheap)
Thanks
