River Power is a micro hydro company, generating electricity from run of river mill sites. River Power offers a unique service to owners of mill sites through the installation and funding of suitable hydro electric plant.

Hydro supplies the vast majority of renewable electricity, generating 20% of the world's energy supply and 90% of total renewable energy globally.

A modern hydro turbine generator set can convert over 90% of the energy available in water into electricity. In addition, run of river micro hydro has a very low impact on the local enviroment.

Land and river owners benefit from a free supply of domestic electricity or from a share of revenue from power that is sold back to the grid.

 

Hydro installations can have a useful
life of over 100 years
