GLOBAL MICRO-HYDROELECTRIC GENERATOR MARKET

INTRODUCTION

 Micro hydroelectric power is a type of hydroelectric energy that typically generates 5 kW to 100 kW of electricity utilising the natural flow of water. Pico hydro describes installations that have less than 5 kW. These installations, especially in areas where net metering is available, can supply electricity to a solitary residence or a small community. They may also be connected to electrical power networks.

A little damned pool at the top of a waterfall is frequently all that is required for the installation, and several hundred feet of piping connect it to a modest generator house. To store the electricity the system produces, some standalone systems, for instance, employ batteries. Batteries, however, may not always be appropriate for micro hydropower because hydropower resources are typically more cyclical in nature than wind or solar resources.

GLOBAL MICRO-HYDROELECTRIC GENERATOR MARKET SIZE AND FORECAST

The Global Micro-hydroelectric generator market accounted for $XX Billion in 2022 and is anticipated to reach $XX Billion by 2030, registering a CAGR of XX% from 2023 to 2030.

RECENT DEVELOPMENT

A novel "plug and play" micro hydropower system called VETT-in-a-Box has been developed by VerdErg Renewable Energy for the purpose of generating energy from minor rivers, wastewater outflows, lock gates, and canals with only a two-metre head drop.

VerdErg Renewable Energy claims that VETT-in-a-Box, which has patents filed in all major areas, has the ability to replace hundreds of diesel-powered generators by bringing electricity to the world's most distant, off-grid sites.

 It provides clients with quick installation and simplicity of use and is a complete micro hydropower plant in a transportable configuration. It can be put in place next to the watercourse or directly into it for flow rates of 500 to 2,000 l/s at low heads up to 4 metres. The assembly comes with a power cabinet for direct electrical use, a connection to a local small grid, or a grid connection. 

When used in poor nations, VETT-in-a-Box provides power for basic electricity requirements, which forms the basis for societal development and access to basic healthcare. It generates clean, decentralised, predictable electricity from water with high load factors at no environmental cost and is a shining example of innovation excellence.

With the help of the patented venturi technology from VerdErg, VETT-in-a-Box provides access to extremely low-head sites. It has also been designed to use standardised, off-the-shelf components, reducing manufacturing and installation costs, and avoiding costly excavation thanks to its location inside an easily transportable container.
