Hydro Power


Hydro power is a well established renewable energy power source, with over 6 per cent of the world's electricity supply generated from hydro stations.

There are a number of different configurations of plants used for hydro production. These include:

  • Reservoir based facilities involving a body of water being impounded behind a dam and released to generate electricity.

  • Low head 'run of river' facilities which generate electricity through the diversion of water from the main course to a generator.

  • High head 'run of river' facilities that generate electricity through the diversion of water from a high drop to a generator.



Novera Energy focuses on small-scale hydro facilities. We have ten schemes ranging from 600 kW to 4.5 MW with an overall capacity of 16MW. Three of these are reservoir based facilities and seven are run of river.
