Hydroelectric Turbine Generators
When comparing the cost per watt for these systems to solar or wind, keep in mind that you may get far more total energy out since they can operate 24 hours per day as long as water is available.  Maximum electrical output may not be achieved unless proper pressure and flow are available.  For more on this see information page.
Micro hydroelectric generators are not UL Listed.  If your installation will be inspected make sure this is acceptable before ordering.

NOTE: ¢/kWH based on purchase cost of hydroelectric turbine spread over 10 years of kWH generated at rated power output.  Figures do not include costs of piping, balance of system components, installation or maintenance.  Credits for state and federal incentives not included.  Performance and ¢/kWH will vary considerably depending on actual head, flow and any out of service time.  Formula: ¢/hWH = 1.14 x $price ÷ Watts
