...experience gained from the operation of a microhydro plant, probably of interest mostly to other Powerspout owners. At the start, in 2014, it was new and there was much to write about but as time has passed there is less. So new posts will only be written if something interesting comes along, - look below to see if there is a new post.

Powerspout and Nissan do a deal.
In a ground-breaking move, UK electric car maker Nissan is gifting a free Leaf all-electric car to Powerspout owners. The offer, which is for a limited time only, is seen as a bold move to promote the 'green' credentials of both technologies.
The ability of the Powerspout to generate a dc voltage compatible with the 360v dc requirement of the Leaf's battery, makes the connection between the turbine and car simply a matter of plugging in, - no complicated power processing is needed.
The range of the 30 kWh version of the Leaf is NEDC rated at 155 miles, - a distance for which the required re-charge can be provided by a Powerspout in just a matter of minutes.
This tie up between Nissan and EcoInnovation, the maker of Powerspout products, adds a tantalising new benefit to owning a Powerspout: a car for FREE and NEVER a visit to a filling station forecourt again !
The offer closes after April 1st 2017 so interested parties need to move quickly to avoid missing out on what has to be an almost too-good-to-be-true deal.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Truth is sometimes stranger than fiction - Nissan IS offering re-cycled Leaf batteries for energy storage in the home, - see XStorage Home on Nissan's web site. Now THAT IS something Powerspout owners could be interested in, - and without being playfully deceived!
