Micro Hydro Maintenance

Micro hydro crossflow turbine

Micro hydro systems can produce significant power and income for decades if they are operating efficiently and maintained to a quality standard.

Every micro hydro system is uniquely designed to match the local flow and head characteristics and its natural environment.

Knowing how to maintain your system can take time and this is where we can support you.

We can also talk you through issues that do not require a technical engineer onsite and discuss correct parts or materials needed or review options to update your system. Get in touch to see how we can help.

One-Off Health Check

This is a non-contract hydro system maintenance visit. Our electrical engineers will visit your site, perform a visual inspection of your system and test all accessible components and consumables, along with reviewing all ipower converter data and any fault codes that appear.

A written report is produced detailing any requirement for remedial or maintenance work.

Remote Monitoring

With our monitoring only option we provide real time monitoring of your hydro system as well as an annual Health Check (Package 1).

If your system goes offline or if any energy production issues occur, we will notify you within 24 hours.

This package allows you the confidence that any drop in generation will be identified rapidly, thus limiting any potential loss of revenue.

You will receive generation reports on a monthly basis giving you a full understanding of your systems’ output all year round.
