Energy Systems & Design Ltd

Energy Systems & Design Ltd is a leading international manufacturer of Micro Hydro Electric machines and components, established in 1980. Located in Canada, they specialize in providing innovative and efficient micro hydro solutions for sustainable energy needs worldwide.

Micro Hydro Electric Machines

Energy Systems & Design offers two primary models tailored to different site requirements:

• Stream Engine: Ideal for sites with higher head. This model optimizes the vertical drop of water to generate power efficiently.
• LH1000 Low Head Engine: Designed for sites with low head and high flow, using a specialized low head propeller design for maximum efficiency.

Both models are compatible with battery-based power systems, generating electricity at a steady rate and storing it in batteries for later use. When AC power is needed, an inverter converts the stored energy. For grid-tie applications, these machines generate high voltage DC compatible with grid-tie inverters, allowing them to feed into the utility grid seamlessly.

How It Works

Energy Systems & Design’s machines harness natural running water sources. The process involves channeling water from a stream into a pipeline to gain enough head (vertical drop). The water accelerates through a nozzle, strikes the turbine wheel, and turns the generator shaft. The power output depends on the head and flow from the water source.

Products

X-Stream Engine

• This model can generate the power of two standard machines, making it highly efficient and powerful.

LH1000 Low Head Engine

• Specifically designed for low-head sites, it uses the same generator as the Stream Engine but features a low head propeller design.

Watter Buddy

• A compact machine generating DC power from sources like a stream running down a hillside. It uses a pipeline to channel water with enough head to build sufficient pressure.

1K Micro Hydro Power System

• An affordable version of the Stream Engine, the 1K Micro Hydro Power System provides reliable power for various needs.
