    Site Assessment Checklist

    Uploaded by

    pedro manrique
    This document provides information for assessing a potential hydroelectric site, including general project details, electric generation potential, flow duration, energy requirements, distribution information, permitting details, and site maps. It collects key site parameters like height difference, available flow, energy costs, voltage needs, permitting status, and river dimensions to evaluate the project feasibility and turbine design requirements. Notes sections ask about variable head, safety systems, and sudden flow changes.

    Energy generation requirements

    If on-grid, power needed


    Off/On-grid? On/Off Yes/no
    during blackout?

    If off-grid, what energy


    What is your current €/kWh generation are you
    energy cost per kWh? $/kWh currently using (Diesel
    genset, solar,...)

    Needed AC frequency 50 / 60 Hz 3 phase or 1 phase 3/1

    Voltage (Phase to Neutral) 220/240/120/… V

    Total yearly energy


    kWh/y Peak power demand kW

    Amperage rating of main Amount of households (if


    A #
    breaker applicable)

    Distance to electrical
    connection point (electrical m/Ft
    cabinet, transformer, pole)

    Permitting information
    Permits needed/available
    Permitting state for water Todo/Done/ Todo/Done/
    for land user use? (state,
    use? NA NA
    community)

    Environmental permits
    Permitting state for grid Todo/Done/ Todo/Done/
    needed/available for the
    connection ? NA NA
    project?

    Varia
    Sluice gate automation
    required Yes / No Number of sluices
    (for flood protection and turbine
    safety)
    Elevation map or side view of site with distances and heights (specify m or ft)

    Be sure to clearly measure the height difference between upstream and downstream water level and to
    indicate how much this head difference can change. Clearly indicate the depth of the water (water level to
    bottom) for both up- and downstream water levels. Be sure to measure the dimensions of the
    downstream area where the turbine will be installed.

    River sketch of the planned location of the turbine (add distance to electrical connection point)

    Measure how wide and deep the river is in the downstream direction. We need to know this to see if the
    whole structure will fit.
    Notes

    Does the site head change due to changing flows or tidal effects? If so, give a range.
    Are there important details to know? Safety system needed for sluice gate?
    Does the flow change suddenly (ex. Upstream weir gate that opens suddenly, sluice gate near turbine that
    controls flow)
