Hydro Power using Waste Water at Esholt WwTW
The Spaans Babcock Screw Generators were switched on at Yorkshire Water in June 2009. Following a short and successful commissioning period the generators are now running 24/7 to provide up to 180kW of renewable energy into the grid system reducing site running costs.
Two Archimedean screws are installed in series, each with a capacity of 90kW. The flow is fed from the inlet works upstream of the generators via an intake/bypass chamber with fast acting hydraulic weir gates and an overflow bypass facility.
