Good bit of kit,In the UK now you can pick up upto 8KW single phase 240v generators with the controller,RCCB,controls ontop,exactly the same as the blue one used here for less than £300,OK they are made in China but they are well made solid bits of kit,all you need to generate your own electricity is your own imagination,water turbine,mulifuel diesel engine running on waste or veg oil,petrol engine running on propane,methane,ethanol,the more people that do it the cheaper it will get!!

64 meters of head? You might try a Pelton turbine instead.

[fmflores2000]

You can still put another turbine at the bottom (spill) like a pelton type so you wont waste that still high pressure

Machine mart is were you can buy the generator from.The blades for the turbines are on ebay They are called pelton blades. but consider an old petrol generator and taking the engine of then couple with youre turbine .

There are a number of companies that stock them have a look on google under "Listeroid" or "Lister clones" in the UK these people sell the Lister engines and the generator units upto 12Kw,the lister engines drive the gens by belts,the gens can be driven by anything as in this case a water turbine.Hope that helps.
