What is your flow rate? 50m of head is good, but the flow has to be there.
My parents have an underground stream that flows 4gpm with a 25ft head, which is useless. They also have a creek with perhaps 400gpm flow and 1ft of head; equally useless. A solar charger is better, cheaper, and less complex.
Pico hydro power doesn't make any sense.
