[Christ]

Supposed to be 10 to 100 times better at producing electricity than solar or wind (separately), because streams tend to flow year round, no matter day or night.

Just wondering if anyone here has actually put a system together, and what the results were?

There is a (very) small stream near my house plot that I planned on using some water from (it's an artesian - cold) for supplemental cooling in my home, by running it through a radiator with a blower fan behind it, so that it would act as a water-air intercooler of sorts.

I then thought that since I'm only allowing a grid-connection to hopefully make the electric company pay me a yearly benefit for my over-generation (and for backup, I guess), I should consider ALL the options, and see if I can't use the stream for some power generation, as well.
