“This is a nicely done undershot water wheel project that blends in well with its setting.
Much of the project was done with parts recycled from various sources.
I utilize the power generated from this wheel to subsidize the output from the two 500 Watt solar panel racks as it was available and otherwise a wasted resource.
New England has had no scarcity of rainfall these past few years at the expense of diminished sunshine. The composite system powers communications equipment, three freezers, propane furnace/hot water, well pump and all electrical requirements of my barn thereby reducing my utility bill by 50%.”
