Problems SHORTAGE of renewable, clean electrical generating capacity NEED FOR ENERGY SECURITY and INDEPENDENCE with local, distributed power independent of grid and imported fuels GLOBAL WARMING – Majority of industrial CO2 emissions come from NOT making electricity by clean renewable sources. POLLUTION – health effects, acid rain, destruction of species HOW TO ADAPT LOW HEAD WATER to make electricity with new tech. Solution Local source of sustainable green energy, 24/7 Easy retrofit, quick to install, simple service – HYDROCOIL TURBINE existing weirs, water millraces, conduits effluent from water treatment plants, from cooling towers, industry roof-top water towers, high rise buildings
HydroCoil® Power provides Providing Clean, Low-Cost energy from un-tapped, renewable micro-hydroelectric resources. Electricity generated by a transformational turbine.
In the Micro Hydro category Electric potential: up to 100 - 200 kW at a site. Low Head: water drops less than 20 meters. Flow Rate: Gallons / Minute (gpm) for HydroCoil turbine in mid-range, ~ 800 gpm (.05 cumecs)
How is this possible? HydroCoil® Turbine With helical vanes & waterproof alternator; in carrying frame.
Points-of-Difference: Technology Innovative – NOT adaptations of high head hydro, NOT an Archimedes screw Design captures more energy: • Cylinder focuses all the water onto coiled vanes--captures more energy electricity • Operates in shallow or deep water Manufacturing: • Injection molded and off-the-shelf parts • Light weight polymer • Constructed for easy servicing
Energizing these Opportunities TheHydroCoil®Turbine Tomorrow’s Technology Today
Competitive Advantages Unique hydrodynamics Sequential deceleration of water Low corrosion, less maintenance, quiet Install clusters of multiple units ( 7-20-40-100) Modularity of Design lowers installation costs per turbine Capital & Installation cost per kilowatt is low • modest total investment. • faster payback to purchaser. Self Starting. No diesel or gas generators: no noise, no combustible fuels to transport, store, or ignite and pollute.
Design Flexibility: Modular Cluster Design depends only on Breadth and Depth of the Water. 8
Simplicity of Design Parts: Fewer than 30. Footprint: Less than 2 Square feet. Weight: less than 40 pounds
Certified Test Results At least 1.5 kW maximum electricity potential/turbine More energy converted from water flow than other turbines when measured on: - footprint - less than 2 Sq. Ft. ( < 0.2 m2 ) - or weight basis (40 lbs., 18 kg.) 10
Environmentally Friendly Clean: Carbon neutral in-operation. Uses Existing Site - Minimal disruption. 11
