Unlike conventional small hydropower generators, our pipe-mounted rim-driven small hydropower generator does not require mechanical devices such as shafts. It is also a new-concept small hydro generator that generates electricity with propellers attached directly to a ring-shaped rim. In addition, unlike the conventional ones, ours is a small hydropower generation system that is directly connected to the discharge water pipeline without the need for civil construction (dam or water barrier).

[Main Characteristics]

• Structure is simple, and possible to be small, lightweight
• Component parts can be separated, and easy to be installed and repaired
• Increase in efficiency due to direct cooling through inflow of seawater, freshwater
• Durable due to structural waterproofing of stator, rotor
• Remove jammed foreign materials and lower defect rates
