Microhydro Power Plant Future Energy Source

Micro Hydro Power Plant, referred to as Micro Hydro, is usually not Provides electricity to the national network. Small-scale plants are commonly used in remote areas or not covered by distribution networks where there is no power grid that has the potential for hydroelectric power to be generated into electrical energy. In particular, these small-scale generators can give power to small rural industries or rural communities. Their size ranges from a small number of kilowatts, enough to Provide local lighting to a group of homes, up to 200 kw. There is an increasing need for electric power supplied to rural and island areas in some countries, some of which can be used to support small industries, and some can be used for night lighting needs. If the government has to build a conventional power plant to a remote area it will requirement a huge inventori cost. Therefore an appropriate alternative is to utilize new renewable energy sources as a solution to provide the availability of electrical energy in areas not accessible by transmission or distribution networks.
