Efficiency, Sustainability, and Innovation in One Solution
Archimedean Screw Turbines are an advanced energy solution for small rivers and canals with low head. We use these turbines in our projects to deliver sustainable and eco-friendly power generation — even in locations where traditional hydropower plants are not feasible.
Advantages of Archimedean Screw Turbines
Low-Head Operation: Efficient performance with a water head from 1 to 10 meters, making them suitable even for the calmest water bodies.
Environmental Safety: Archimedean Screw Turbines are a fish-friendly technology: they do not obstruct fish migration, preserve natural waterways, and help oxygenate the water through mechanical rotation.
Durability and Reliability: Designed for a service life of over 40 years with minimal maintenance costs.
Simplicity and Autonomy: These are unmanned, decentralized solutions requiring no complex control systems or constant on-site personnel — ideal for isolated installations.
Energy Efficiency: Heat recovery from generators is possible, further improving overall energy system efficiency.
Flexible Installation: Turbines can be configured horizontally or vertically. Their length and structure adapt to terrain, water flow rate, and climate — including operation in temperatures as low as –20 °C.
