Turbulent Hydro – Vortex Energy Systems for an Ecological School (Indonesia)

The document details the installation of a 15 kWp vortex turbine at the Green School in Bali to replace an unstable national grid. The system provides continuous electricity for 500 students and four houses, reducing electricity costs by 60-80% and avoiding 62 tonnes of CO2e emissions.

• The installation of a 15 kWp vortex hydropower system at the Green School in Bali provided reliable electricity for 500 students and four houses, enabling the school to produce more electricity than it consumes and share the surplus with the surrounding community.
• The project resulted in a 60-80% reduction in electricity costs, attributed to improved grid quality and reliability, and avoided 62 tonnes of CO2e emissions.
• Turbulent's vortex turbine technology is designed for low-head rivers and canals, requiring minimal civil works and no dams, which allows for continuous 24/7/365 electricity without the need for storage or diesel backup.
