Hi Dan, I may be interested in one of your systems. I am the very begining stages so i don' t have all the info. I want to help put in a simple system in the dominican republic for a small community with no elec. as a personal development proj. It looks like they have a good stream on a good down grade (mountain side).
I know I have little info but I am hoping that you might give me an approx price on a system - so that I could start getting a very "approximate" idea of what kind of funds I'd need to start raising. I want to provide maybe 50 households with electricity all within a 2 kilometer radius, I don't know how much electricity they would want per household, but I don't think they know either - so at this point I'm projecting each house would have a simple outlet for a light or two and maybe some small appliance. I'm not expecting quotes for building the diversion/ screen/ powerhouse/pipes - but probably for the generator, turbine, governor, controls and emergency shutdown system - and I am sure I am probably missing something. I am providing a photo of the stream in dry season in case it helps. I don't know if this is enough information to get some kind of idea of a system and perhaps some approx quote. thanks Ed Dufort >From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] >Reply-To: [email protected] >To: [email protected] >Subject: Re: [microhydro] searching for beginners info >Date: Thu, 15 Sep 2005 20:22:27 EDT > >For some basics, try the "Guide to Hydro Power", in the "Residential" >section at _www.canyonhydro.com_ (http://www.canyonhydro.com) > >Cheers, > > >Dan > > >[Non-text portions of this message have been removed] > > > [Non-text portions of this message have been removed] ------------------------ Yahoo!
