HoldenHydro - Lowest Cost Per Watt Renewable Energy System2

HoldenHydro Turbine Advantages

Lower cost -- The Holden HP Turbine produces significantly greater energy output compared to other hydro turbine options on the market. In addition, the Holden HP Turbine is less expensive than other hydro power to implement simply because it is economically feasible to manufacture and much less expensive to install.

Low maintenance cost -- The Holden HP Turbine is designed to have the lowest maintenance cost of any turbine in the industry. This includes unique features that reduce friction and eliminate electronics that are prone to breaking down. Even more important, the Holden HP Turbine is 100% mechanical which means, if there are high intensity solar flares or there is any type of disruption to the electronic grid, there are no electronics to break down. What this means to you is undisturbed and constant energy output, thus redefining "100% mechanical systems". In addition, the Holden HP Turbine has all the bearings and seals located outside the turbine to make any changes easy to conduct. And with the unique horizontal axis turbine design, the Holden HP Turbine is designed to last for decades.

Improved efficiency -- Due to the unique two-stage design and the proprietary hydrodynamic friction reduction yield unique only to the Holden HP Turbine, there is an increase in power generation. This means that a smaller Holden HP Turbine unit can produce the same output as much larger competitive unit, thereby substantially accelerating the return on investment.

No dam required -- The Holden HP Turbine can be utilized for in-conduit installations, can be used in pressure relief dumps for harnessing wasted energy, can be used "in line of stream" applications and can be excellent for "run of the river" applications, plus more. There is nothing better for generating hydropower on the planet than the Holden HP Turbine, representing the most significant advance in hydro power generation in the last 100 years.

For existing dams -- The Holden HP Turbine can also add more generating capacity by attaching to the overflow, or it can be used to replace the primary generation turbines if necessary. Even more importantly, the Holden HP Turbine is the only solution which can be installed on dams which are out of commission due to silting or low water levels and allow them to be productive again within 72 hours if needed.

Compatible with all generators -- The Holden HP Turbine is designed to mate to any off-the-shelf generators and utilize off-the-shelf bearings to reduce costs, providing links to both AC and DC generators.

Portability -- Even the 30MW unit is designed to fit on a flat-bed truck. The small 25kW unit can be lifted into any location. The Holden HP Turbines can be transported to virtually any remote site in the world and can easily be moved into place using helicopter lifts.

Longevity -- The Holden HP Turbine is prefabricated and designed to last for decades. The Holden HP Turbine is not cast like all other turbines, which can break from any shock event.

No cavitations -- A dual stage pressurized design in the Holden HP Turbine eliminates cavitations and subsequent internal damage, reducing maintenance requirements and extending the service life of the turbine.

Fixed speed option -- The dual shaft-end outputs of the Holden HP Turbine allows for direct drive of two generators from the turbine without the need for gearboxes or belts.

Variable speed option -- The new design of Holden HP Turbines includes an adjustable speed version turbine which uses off centerline speed to meet any specific needs.
