SMART Turbine
Smart Hydro Power Turbine
Designed by Smart Hydro Power, the SMART turbine is designed for rivers, featuring reinforced debris protection and a patented anchoring system.
Designed by Smart Hydro Power, the SMART turbine is a turbine designed as a horizontal axis “in-stream” turbine for generating power from the kinetic energy of flowing water. This product was developed to be low-cost while minimizing negative environmental impacts. Additionally, it is highly adaptable to different stream conditions and can either be on-grid or off-grid. A video is available about the engineering behind the device.
The company is based in Feldafing (Garatshausen) in Germany.
Smart Hydro Power has projects in all continents and has prioritized the productive use of sustainable decentralized electrification solutions. Interview with representative
