All of us know all rivers have lots of capablity to produce elecricity but we have to use very costly hydro plants which harms the aquatic life and displaces many people from their homes but my new idea is to use the speed of the river using floating styrafoam generators with a turbine the generator if i am succesful they will be like fixed buoys attached to the shore and will produce 3 KW/hr for rivers like ganges and missipi per unit we can have many units like this and that produces power to suplly settlements near imagine all those near the river just gaining electricity outside their home
i guess the total unit will not be larger that 2m^2 and if we it is monsoon more electricity is produced i am yet to do the complete calculation so i am updating in parts

This is the styrafoam we can use.

SUGGESTED FOR: alternate energy

Dedicated to: myself,my family
