New IREM catalogue HYDRO POWER 2025

With the project called “Refuges Zéro Fumée,” the first IREM hydroelectric turbine producing energy from a renewable source was installed at the Refuge de Chamoissière, run by Sebastien and Sylvie. This solution allows the refuge to be almost completely decarbonized, significantly reducing the environmental impact of its management.

VIDEO | Water has always been a precious and inexhaustible renewable source. IREM hydroelectric turbines, the result of over seventy years of experience, make it possible to convert water energy into electricity in a sustainable way and with full respect for the environment.

For this project, IREM supplied three Pelton turbine-generator units, certified for aqueduct installation, with an electrical power range between 34 kW and 180 kW.

IREM has obtained CEI 0-21 certification for the generation units composed of hydroelectric turbine + grid parallel switchboard, passing all the required tests, carried out by an accredited laboratory.

The EDF Group, a global leader and the largest energy producer in France, has selected IREM as its partner for pico-hydro projects.

IREM continues to innovate to offer cutting-edge solutions in the HYDRO POWER sector, always putting quality, efficiency and sustainability first. Among these, the TPD PICO HYDRO system, which thanks to the vertical axis Pelton turbine, designed to offer maximum efficiency and reliability, is able to generate energy in a simple and sustainable way.
