Creetown - Renewables Potential

Specific Consideration

Hydro

• Glenquicken house (Creetown), plan to install a small scale hydro system of 0.5 kW using water from road drainage as the source.
  
  
• The design flow will be of 10 l/s (0.01 m³/s) and a head of 12 m.
  
  
• According to our estimations the maximum power output should be 0.6 k W.
  
  
• The estimated flow rate of the source is 10 l/s.
  
  
• A reservoir for 10 days storage is planned. This is estimated to increase the power output to 1 kW.
  
  
• The volume of the reservoir will be 10,000 m³.
