Description and Table of Contents
Description
This is a guide to the use of standard pump units as a low-cost alternative to conventional turbines to provide electricity generation in remote locations. The text is written as a practical handbook for engineers and technicians involved in designing and installing small water-power schemes for isolated communities. This book arises out of the practical experience of field work in village location in a number of countries. Arthur Williams has worked with the Intermediate Technology Development Group on micro-hydro since 1987. He completed a PhD at the Nottingham Trent University on the use of pumps as turbines, and continues to work there as a Senior Research Fellow. He has his own engineering consultancy, Hydro-Active Engineering, and has worked in Nepal, Pakistan, Sri Lanka and Guyana.
