Underwater Hydropower System? asking for a Friend
Hello, was looking for information for a friend, they own small cabin in Alaska - they have small creek running thru there land 5-8ft wide 1-2ftD in spots, doesn't have no head. Looking for hydropower generator that can be conceal underwater and removeable... from our understanding we can't mount nothing in the creek like water wheel. any help would be great..
My understanding they have:
24V System with 4 trojan
Magnum sine inverter box
Midnite controller

You probably need pretty good water speed (something on the order of 5-7 knots or 6-8 MPH) to get them turning out useful energy...
