Description:
Ever-expanding interest in renewable energy systems, from small wind to solar, has led to a renewed interest in one of the oldest and most established types of renewable energy: hydropower. When most people think of hydropower, they imagine the Hoover Dam or other large-scale installations. Hydroelectricity can also work on a much smaller scale. This module focuses on micro-hydroelectricity (micro-hydro), designed for homeowners and agricultural operators to reduce purchased electricity use, much like a small wind or solar electric system.
