Green Energy: Hidrokinetic Turbines

The alternative energy generation program started in the early 80s at the University of Brasilia. Later LEA, Energia LTDA and TipoD along with other partners and sponsors began to optimize the technology.

The G1 and G2 are the 1st models, nowadays the G3 is near the end of development.

Model G2 is avaliable for sale. See more: www.tipod.com.br

Thanks man! We keep optimizing this machine all the time!

1 kWh = 24000 watts per day (24kWh) he's lucky to be able to even do that. In Canada it's not permitted, on any river.

Great song in the video. What is it named?

[atomrocketcar]

i think it means hour

[htomerif]

1kwh to 3kwh doesnt make sense. Do you mean 1kw to 3kw?

Nice design. Good for running a small farm or an irrigation program. Well done.

brilliant ..

Looks great. One of the challenges to hydro power is its ability to cause less impact to water organisms down to micron levels, for example fish eggs and naupli (juvenile invertebrates). Once this has been achieved, we will have a true near 0 ecological impact.
