Micro-Hydropower Technology

The first micro-

hydropower plant was

constructed in the

1930s in San Pablo

City, Laguna Province.


3/50

Villa Escudero Plantation and Resort

Existing 75 kW micro hydro facility wasbuit in 1937;

a run-of-the-river installation;

The system was intended to provideirrigation and power supply to the estate;

At present, this hydropower station is oneof the main tourism attractions of the

resort New unit was installed with 97.8 kW

capacity raising total capacity to 172.8 kW

What is hydropower?

Harnessing the energy

of flowing water

Height

Head

Weight of the water

Discharge

Basic Principle of hydropower

If water can be piped from

a certain level to a lower

level, then the resulting

water pressure can be

used to do work.Hydropower is a very

clean source of energy.

This technology has acomparably high efficiency

Classification of Hydropower

Large Hydropower : > 50 MW

Small Hydropower : 11 MW to 50 MW

Mini Hydropower : 101 kW to 10,000 kW Micro Hydropower : 5 kW up to 100 kW

Pico Hydropower : < 5 kW

Micro-hydropower System


8/50

Micro Hydropower

a hydro system with a rated capacity up toapproximately 100 kW.

usually run-of-the-river installations

one of the most environmentally benignenergy conversion options available

can be used decentralized from the

national grid and be locally implementedand managed.


9/50

Advantages Micro Hydropower

Efficient energy source;

Reliable electricity source;

No reservoir required; Cost-effective energy solution;

Power for developing countries;

Integrate with the local power grid.

DOST Micro Hydropower Projects

Micro Hydropower Support Project forIrrigation of Highland Farming

Communities of Aquino and San Pedro,

Tiaong, Quezon

Establishment of Micro-Hydropower

Support System in Selected HighlandFarming Communities in CALABARZONRegion


12/50

Micro Hydropower Support Project for

Irrigation of Highland Farming

Communities of Aquino and San Pedro,Tiaong, Quezon

Objectives:

1. To operationalize a 20-30 kW micro-

hydropower scheme to generate electricity to

pump water to an elevation of 590 m for

irrigation purposes for the highland farming

communities of Brgy. Aquino and San Pedro;


13/50

Objectives:

2. To enable farmer-beneficiaries to utilize

precision irrigation technologies (sprinkler ordrip irrigation systems) for the target Baguio-

vegetable production project for the service

area;3. To help enable farmer-beneficiaries to

enhance their livelihood opportunities as

influenced by the availability of irrigationwater through the MHP project;


14/50

Objectives:

4. To enable farmer-beneficiaries to have access

to generated electricity for basic lighting

requirements of the needy households of the

beneficiary barangays;

5. to help enable the target beneficiaries to carefor the watershed of the creek that provides

the steamflow that drives the MHP.

PRODUCT LINE :

Agricultural production,

Livelihood support and

Development recreational areas for

tourists.


16/50

DOST INTERVENTION :

Establish micro-hydropower system in

selected communities.

Establishment of Micro-Hydropower

Support System in Selected Highland

Farming Communities in CALABARZONRegion

Objectives:1. To assess potential sites for the micro-

hydropower support system in the

provinces of Laguna, Rizal and Quezon;


34/50

Objectives:

2. To establish an operationalize a 20-30 kW

micro-hydropower scheme to generateelectricity to pump water necessary for

irrigating highland farming communities;

3. To increase productivity in highland

farming thru the availability of irrigation;

4. To provide access to electricity in some

remote communities from the selected

municipalities in Laguna, Rizal and Quezon.

Further recognizing the huge potential of

micro-hydropower in preserving running water

such as falls and streams, DOST 4Aconducted assessment of the site for San

Ysidro Micro-hydropower Project in Antipolo

City in Rizal Province.With a proposed budget of PhP2M still

awaiting approval, LGU-Antipolo City, DOST

is targeting a potential power generation of169,894 kw/h for a 21 kW capacity. The

annual estimated amount of generation is

PhP 849,468.00

Potential Micro Hydropower Project Sites

in Bato Resort, San Pablo City, Laguna

and Manasa Resort, Lucban, Quezon

Objectives:1. To assess potential sites for the micro-

hydropower support system for tourism

development in the provinces of Laguna,Rizal and Quezon;
