The hidden energy recovery potential in water district networks

 

Energy recovery potential of a water district network in South Africa

Water district networks hide a renewable energy potential which can be recovered by means of hydropower.

A hydraulic model has been developed for the preliminary identification of excess operating pressures within the system.

These excess pressures can be converted into electrical energy through the process of energy recovery with hydro turbines
