#microhydro — Public Fediverse posts

"We have instead to consider matters of scale and purpose. Scale: rooftop solar is different from utility-scale PV fields. Farm-based biogas reactors are different from industrial-scale monocrop biofuel plantations. Micro-hydro is different from mega-dams. In each case, the former fits into an ecological relationship to the specific beings, human and otherwise, of a place."

If anyone here has experience with #microhydro (or knows someone who does), please get in touch. Thinking about setting up a low-environmental-impact micro hydro system next year, but have some questions.
