TECHNOLOGY
Hydroelectric turbines for green, decentralized energy.
We develop cost-effective hydropower plants for that can be installed in any river, canal or waterway that has a drop between 1.5 - 5 m. You can generate electricity using an individual turbine or a network of multiple turbines for higher energy demands, all designed for durability and low maintenance.
The vortex turbine.
Trash Rack
Protective trash rack for large debris. Small debris can safely pass, minimizing the risk of blockage
Core Unit
Premium efficiency IE3 Generator and Gearbox for 24/7 operation
Sluice Gate
Automated sluice gate for flow control
Protective mesh
Preventing large debris falling iunthe turbine
Fish-Friendly Vortex
The unique basin shape turns the incoming flow into a low-pressure vortex, allowing aquatic life to pass unharmed
Power Electronics
Highly reliable power electronics from EU manufacturers, carefully selected for long lifespan and uninterrupted operation.
Remote Control
A leading-edge IEC-61131-3 controller takes care of safe, efficient and autonomous operation of the turbine. Secure remote control is included for predictive maintenance, upgrades & PPA implementations.

Why is Turbulent better?
FISH FRIENDLY
A low RPM impeller with a design that creates low shear stress. The slow rate of pressure difference over the blade ensures that this turbine lets all fish and aquatic life pass by unharmed.
NO FLOOD RISK
As our turbines work together with nature, they do not obstruct the normal water flow, eliminating flood risks altogether.
LOW MAINTENANCE
Superb quality components made in EU, a trash rack for protection from large debris, and only one moving component allows this turbine to produce energy with hardly any maintenance cost.
EASY TO INSTALL
The vortex turbine is the smallest in its kind for each given energy level. It is preassembled and easily transported to your site.
LONG OPERATING LIFE
REMOTE MONITORING
The turbine is fitted with monitoring software, enabling control from anywhere, anytime.
Our technology was designed with the collaboration of several Universities and recognized by MIT for its promising innovations.
