Welcome
Heidra is a Dartmoor based company with the core aim of developing
well-engineered small hydro electric installations to optimise the
power generated from water whilst minimising the local
environmental impact. Typical sites have a rainfall catchment
area greater than 3 square kilometers and a head of above 50
m. Key projects in this
area are:
- Development of accurate resource assessment
tools to predict and measure the flow-duration curve at a
given site. The work is part funded by the
Dartmoor
National Park and is performed in conjunction with
WHS and
DARE.
-
Manufacture of an efficient, low-cost turbine for
high-head, low-flow sites to maximise power capture from the
available resource without the environmental impact of
reservoir storage: contract awarded from
RE4D;
- Development of a Small, High-Head Hydro (S3H)
demonstration site: Environmental Impact Analysis in
progress.
