IREM hydroelectric turbines for aqueducts

This technology uses the flow of water in aqueducts to generate clean and renewable electricity. An abundant and unused resource is thus valorised.

The advantages of using hydroelectric turbines on aqueducts:

Production of clean and renewable energy: contributes to decarbonisation and the fight against climate change.
Exploitation of an unused resource: valorises the water present in the aqueducts, transforming the potential energy of the water into electricity.
Reduction of energy costs: allows aqueduct management bodies to save on energy costs or to implement an important revenue asset.
Sustainable development: a concrete example of how technological innovation can contribute to a more sustainable future.

IREM hydroelectric turbines for aqueducts

IREM proposal

IREM turbines for aqueducts make up a complete range specifically dedicated to this application, compact in size, easily installable and completely oil-free, they are able to produce energy without any environmental impact.

IREM is at the forefront in the development of this innovative technology and collaborates with aqueduct management bodies and universities to optimize their turbines and maximize their efficiency.

Leader in this technology

With over 160 hydroelectric turbines, of the Pelton and Banki type, installed on the aqueducts of over 20 countries, IREM confirms its global leadership position in this specific sector. To find out more about IREM hydroelectric turbines for aqueducts: aqueduct installations
