Planning a Microhydropower System | Department of Energy

To build a micro-hydropower system, you need access to flowing water on your property. A sufficient quantity of falling water must be available, which usually, but not always, means that hilly or mountainous sites are best. Other considerations for a potential micro-hydropower site include its power output, economics, permits, and water rights.
