KWKS hydropower screw

Mechanically indestructible, stable and offering outstanding long-term reliability, KUHN KWKS hydropower screws create both old and new energy potential – whether for “residual water use” at existing hydroelectric power sites or standalone operation in remote areas of the world.

Based on its simple design, the technology is extremely promising and sustainable. Driven by the height difference of the water and a flat angle of installation, the mechanical force of the (river) water is converted into electrical energy and heat.

• Minimal investment and operating costs
• A high degree of operational reliability
• Enhanced efficiency ratios
• Fish-friendly
• Advanced technology, low maintenance and long service life
• Optional: with heat exchanger
