description | The prototype development of an automatic and floating structured hydropower plant constitutes a pioneering initiative aimed at addressing the critical issue of energy scarcity in remote areas. This research is centered on the creation of an innovative and sustainable energy solution that capitalizes on diverse water flow conditions. It involves design and construction of a floating hydropower plant that seamlessly integrates a Pico hydro turbine, generator, and control system. The IoT technology is incorporated to enable real-time monitoring and visualization of essential electrical parameters through mobile apps. In light of the escalating global demand for renewable energy solutions, this research holds immense significance. By extending access to electricity to off-grid communities, especially those residing in remote regions where conventional energy infrastructure is impractical, the proposed floating hydropower plant offers a reliable, eco-friendly power source. Its deployment in rivers and water bodies underscores its adaptability and potential to significantly alleviate energy deficits in underserved areas. As the world grapples with the pressing need for a transition toward sustainable energy sources, this project serves as a beacon of ingenuity and progress. By broadening the scope of the original research and exploring avenues for further enhancement, this endeavor underscores the commitment to a future where accessible, clean, and efficient power generation can transform the lives of communities plagued by energy scarcity. The outcomes and implications of this research endeavor not only contribute to the field of renewable energy but also provide a foundation for future innovations in sustainable power generation systems. |
