Residential Micro Hydro
Want to reduce your energy impact on the environment?
Harness the power of water with a micro-hydro system.
Harnessing the power of water to generate electricity is responsible and sensible–it’s a prudent use of resources that protects the environment. Today’s micro-hydro system designs are dependable, economical, efficient and environmentally- friendly. Figuring out if you’re a good candidate for a micro-hydro system can be as simple as whether or not you have a stream running down a hillside on your property! That stream water moves twenty-four hours a day, creating a consistent power source for your home. A great option if your home is planned for a location off the grid, micro-hydro systems are opening up many new opportunities to build homes in locations far from roads and utilities. Other forms of renewable energy require much higher subsidies and regulation to come even close to the value of micro-hydro power systems. Prudent Living offers micro-hydro systems that are grid-connected electrical power generation or off-grid stand-alone battery-charging systems. Contact us for a free consultation on your property to see if a micro-hydro system is right for you.
