Abstract

In order to meet the world’s energy needs while reducing environmental effect, the search for renewable energy sources has grown in importance. Hydro turbines are essential for utilising the power of flowing water to generate hydroelectric power, which is a particularly promising source of renewable energy. The design, implementation, and performance assessment of hydro turbine systems are the main topics of this study, which investigates the viability and efficiency of using them to generate energy on their own. An overview of renewable energy sources is given in the literature review, with special attention to the importance of hydroelectric power as a clean and sustainable energy source. The potential for hydro turbines to significantly contribute to renewable energy goals is highlighted by reviewing prior research on the technology as well as developments in self-electricity generation approaches. The selection criteria for hydro turbine sites, design factors, and integration strategies are all included in methodology, with a focus on modelling and simulation approaches to maximise system performance. The Hydro Turbine Technology section discusses several kinds of hydro turbines, their working principles, and efficiency developments, providing background information for the design and implementation stages. The site evaluation, turbine selection, and system integration—taking into account both grid-connected and independent setups—are the main focuses of the design and implementation process. To guarantee the sustainable implementation of hydro turbine systems, regulatory and environmental compliance considerations are also taken into account. Metrics for performance evaluation, such as case studies of systems that have been put into place and techniques for gathering data, are developed to evaluate the performance of turbines. There is an identification of challenges, along with suggested remedies and mitigating measures, pertaining to environmental effect, technological constraints, and economic feasibility. Looking ahead, new developments in hydro turbine systems are examined, along with possible avenues for further study and legislative suggestions to encourage the use of renewable energy. This study concludes by highlighting the potential of hydro turbines for producing power on their own and offering a thorough analysis of the design, implementation, and performance evaluation aspects. Hydro turbines provide a dependable and sustainable way to meet energy needs while lowering dependency on fossil fuels, which has important ramifications for the renewable energy industry.
