Hydropower For
Your Business
Fuel your operations and reduce your carbon footprint with durable, cost-effective hydroelectric turbines.
What Is Hydropower?
Hydropower is one of the oldest and largest sources of renewable energy on Earth with evidence of watermills dating back to the 4th Century BC. Today, modern turbines can be discretely positioned next to rivers and canals to harness the water’s energy and convert it into electricity.
Even where there is a low height difference a single turbine can generate between 15 – 70 kW of constant energy while turbine clusters can power entire regions.
The Vortex Turbine
The Vortex Turbine is a next-generation, hydrodynamic system designed to operate constantly for 30 years. Able to withstand any type of flood and protected by multiple sealing systems against fresh and saltwater debris and sand, the turbine can be configured to perform against a range of head and flow combinations.
Compact and easily installed, the system is designed to produce low pressure differentials above the blades meaning aquatic life can pass by it unharmed.
Turbine Advantages
Harness constant energy from previously unviable waterways and power your business with clean energy 24/7/365.
- Systems are quickly delivered
- Compact enough to be transported on light commercial vehicles
- Typically no need for water or installation permits
- Installation can be completed within days
- Each turbine generates between 120.000 and 56.000 kWh per year
- Control and monitor turbines remotely from any location
Installing Multiple Turbines
If you have above average energy needs and access to several rivers or canals, the highly flexible, low-head design of the Vortex Turbine means multiple systems can be easily installed.
With access to at least 5 metres of a canal or river with a flow larger than 1 cubic metre, you can request a network of interconnected turbines which – depending on drops and flow – can generate enough megawatts to electrify sites with even the largest footprints.
Tariff will scour the business energy market to find deals that work for you.
We’ll organise the whole switching process for you – minimum fuss, maximum results.
You’ll benefit from the massive savings that a new energy deal can bring.
Why Choose Tariff?
At Tariff.com, your business success is our priority. That's why we offer a hassle-free experience with:
Long Operating Life
By following the maintenance plan, your Vortex Turbine will enjoy a 30-year lifespan.
Zero Flood Risk
Vortex Turbines work with normal water flows rather than against them, meaning flood risk is eliminated.
Easy Installation
The smallest of its type for every energy level, the Vortex Turbine is preassembled and easily delivered to any site.
Remote Monitoring
The turbine arrives fitted with software that allows the system to be monitored and controlled from any location, any time.
The team at Tariff has provided Trans4orm Fitness with a fantastic service from start to finish. Following their expert advice, we opted to procure our energy long-term to protect the business from increases in prices, and as such we saved over £16,000 a year! We’re now using 100% Green Electricity too, which is important to be sustainable for our customers.
Our Account Manager Rachael has provided Elite Group with a fantastic service from start to finish. She audited and reviewed our Energy for multiple sites, aligned all of our contracts to one supplier and one end date. Rachael also forward procured our energy before the price increases, and has saved us thousands a year by doing this. I would highly recommend working with them and see how they can help your organisation!
The service we received from the Tariff team was second to none. They understood the requirements of the organisation and offered a professional service. The Tariff team were able to save us money on our energy and this was even more so important for us being a charity returning from the effects of COVID-19. I would use Tariff again!
I rarely give public testimonials, but I’d like to recommend Tariff.com as an outstanding energy consultation service. Aside from recommending Tariff.com as a company, because personal recommendations based on experiences and feedback are the strongest of all, the benefits of using Tariff.com are factual and more welcome.
Frequently Asked Questions
Hydropower is a renewable energy technology that generates electricity by harnessing the energy of flowing water. Modern hydroelectric systems use turbines to convert water movement into usable electrical power.
A Vortex Turbine is a hydroelectric generation system designed to harness the energy of flowing water and convert it into electricity. The technology is designed to operate continuously while minimising impact on waterways and aquatic life.
Hydropower generates renewable electricity without relying on fossil fuels, making it an option for businesses looking to reduce carbon emissions and support net-zero objectives.
Hydropower systems are typically designed for long-term operation. The Vortex Turbine technology featured by Tariff.com is designed with a long operational lifespan when maintained in accordance with manufacturer recommendations.
ydropower can help businesses generate renewable electricity, reduce reliance on grid energy and support long-term sustainability goals. It may also help improve energy resilience and reduce exposure to fluctuating energy prices.
Hydropower suitability depends on local site conditions, including access to flowing water, water volume and available infrastructure. A site assessment is typically required to determine viability.
Depending on the available waterways and site characteristics, multiple turbine systems may be installed to increase generating capacity and support larger energy requirements.
Tariff.com helps businesses explore hydropower opportunities, assess site suitability, understand generation potential and evaluate renewable energy options that support operational and sustainability objectives.
