Hydroelectricity

If your commercial building is located near a small stream or river there is the possibility of providing some or all of your energy needs through a small scale hydroelectricity scheme.

Hydroelectricity uses the force of running water to drive a turbine which produces electricity through a generator. More effective with larger volumes of fast water falling from a height, a small non-intrusive dam can be constructed in order to increase these factors.

Advantages of the technology include:

• Utilising the power of water and generating a clean, green renewable source of energy to power your business
• Local government may be keen to assist with costs related to work such as feasibility studies, water course improvement, fish passes and biodiversity which are all added benefits of this technology
• Both Feed-in Tariffs and Renewables Obligation Certificates allow an income to be generated from the energy produced, recovering the costs of installations quicker as well as through reducing energy bills
• Maintenance of the schemes are low when up and running with predicted long plant life
• Use the scheme as an asset to your business, as an attraction or just to boost your environmental values.
