This project provides a hydroelectric system for a village. Unlike conventional micro-hydro systems that regulate power with a dump load, excess power in this project goes into a water heater in each home to improve sanitation. Prototyping of the controller will be done in Calgary and the micro-hydro system in the village will be engineered by a Kathmandu group.
