What will I learn?

This Hydroelectric Engineering Course builds practical skills for evaluating run-of-river sites, estimating flow, head, and energy output, and choosing turbines, intakes, and penstocks for optimal performance. Master plant sizing for remote communities, cost comparisons with diesel generators, O&M planning, and handling environmental, social, and regulatory needs for efficient small hydropower projects.

Elevify advantages

Develop skills

  • Hydrology and site assessment: size run-of-river plants using limited field data.
  • Hydro design calculations: compute head, losses, net power and capacity factor.
  • Hydraulic layout selection: match turbines, penstock and intake to site conditions.
  • Community demand sizing: convert village load profiles into reliable plant capacity.
  • Hydro project viability: compare LCOE to diesel, O&M costs and emissions savings.
