Highly illustrated and practical, Microhydro is the first complete book on the topic in many years. Covering both AC and DC systems, it first introduces the important principles on which microhydro is based, including the advantages and disadvantages of using small amounts of water to generate power. It then outlines in depth:

-how to assess your particular electrical needs.
-how to assess your specific site - including measurement of water flow, water pressure, losses from friction, and the choice of jets.
-how to choose the appropriate system for your needs - including DC systems with turbines and batteries, and AC systems with governing devices
-how to install a microhydro system - including intakes, pipes and penstocks, as well as common obstacles
-the common regulations and incentives for installing microhydro power
-seven important case studies that demonstrate microhydro possibilities.
