Throughout history, humanity has harnessed the power of water to operate various machinery such as sawmills, textile mills, and corn mills. Today, hydroelectric power serves as a renewable energy source, accounting for sixteen percent of global electricity production.
Xylem specializes in Semi-Kaplan submersible hydro turbines designed for submerged operation, ensuring minimal environmental impact with silent and unobtrusive performance. Our turbines achieve exceptional efficiency and reliability by eliminating the need for transmission shafts, couplings, and intermediate bearings. Specifically engineered for small hydroelectric plants, where ease of installation and service is essential, they generate significant electricity from flowing water, contributing to sustainable energy production.
