Micro hydro power information

Alternative energy is the only way to go to break our dependence on foreign oil. Micro hydro power is becoming more affordable as time goes by.; I like to try things out small first and build upon the power grid by linking multiple power sources to power everything.

One thing I am always interested in is scalability of the hydro systems. One key to all of my alternative energy sources is the ability to add on, this is a unique situation with Hydro power as you need the water flow.; Hydro power is still a very viable alternative energy source Change the World
