This project aims to install a 10 kW low-head Micro-Hydro Plant (MHP) along a riverside, generating power for a nearby school
Baiturrahman is a well-known Islamic boarding school in Ciparay, a rural area in southern Bandung, West Java, Indonesia. One of the school's missions is to use renewable energy resources to generate its electricity. The school already uses biogas for cooking and lighting. To generate more electricity, this project plans to harness the existing hydro potential of the river next to the school by implementing an innovative low-head micro-hydro plant (MHP). It is anticipated that the power generated from the 5 kW plant will be enough to operate the school's water pump, which provides clean water for the boarding school.
