Data Collection
Accurate data is crucial for site analysis. From local water system vaults to remote mountainous watersheds our team knows how to obtain all necessary information to recommend the turbine that will provide results.
Feasibility Studies
Performing a feasibility study is the first step in our process. This can be as simple as economic analysis or as comprehensive as developing preliminary designs, permitting and applications. Our typical scope of work for any hydro feasibility study includes but is not limited to the following tasks:
• Project site evaluation
• Flow and pressure data acquisition
• Equipment recommendations
• Energy generation estimation
• Annual revenue estimation
• Design and Engineering cost estimation
• Construction cost estimation
• Installation cost estimation
• Engineering economics

Using a HELOC as your solar loan
A $20,000 home equity loan is 4.5% with no fees with credit over 700. If this is correct and you are quoted $3.50 per watt before the 30% solar tax credit.
Then a standard 6kw system will require you to borrow $21,000 until you can do your taxes and get your 30% solar tax credit back ($6,300.00) at which time you could pay the balance of the loan down to $14,700. At the rate of 4.5% this loan will cost you $661.00 per year in interest plus any principal repayments.
However, a 6kw system may eliminate a power bill of up to $1,800 per annum and so this creates opportunities for either taking some short term monthly savings or paying the system down quickly to maximize the number of years of free energy you get at the end.

Kentucky Self Sustaining Community - A Case Study
Water and Sunlight— so essential to us all, and yet it still has the potential to further impact our lives in important and positive ways. Hydroelectricity goes by many names — “hydroelectric energy,” “hydropower,” or just plain “water power” — but don’t let that trip you up. It all boils down to harnessing the force of moving water. In this video, you’ll learn interesting hydropower facts and how water power works. Isn’t it amazing how something as simple as water can offer us clean, renewable energy to power our homes, businesses and communities sustainably? We certainly think so! Transcript: Renewable Energy 101 Water covers 71% of the Earth's surface and is vital to our daily lives. It can also be a clean, renewable, reliable source of electricity. Hydroelectric energy comes from capturing the force of moving water that's in our Earth's rivers and oceans. We do this by using the movement of the water to spin hydraulic turbines. That generates kinetic energy, which is converted to electricity through a generator and then sent to the power grid. Hydropower is generated from rivers and streams where a drop in elevation exists.

• You add $17,000 to it for the cost of a 7kw solar system (after 30% tax credit is received and paid back off the loan) that covers your electricity bill.
• The new balance of your home loan is $317,000 but you refinance to a rate of 3.8% for 20 years;
• Your old monthly loan payment was $1946.00 now your payment is $1887 saving of $59 per month;
• You also no longer have a power bill saving you a further $200 a month or $2400 per year for a total saving of around 3,100 per year.
