Turbines
Turbine Range
Kaplan, Francis and Pelton turbines selected and engineered according to site hydraulic conditions, plant layout and project performance targets. Tecnoriva Hydro supports both new hydropower developments and upgrade projects with application-focused turbine solutions.
Kaplan
For low head, high flow applications.
Kaplan turbines are suitable for hydropower plants operating under low-head, high-flow conditions, where efficient regulation and dependable performance are required. Each solution can be engineered according to hydraulic data, plant layout and operating profile, supporting reliable operation across variable flow conditions.
Francis
For medium head applications.
Francis turbines offer a well-established combination of efficiency, operational flexibility and long-term reliability across a wide range of medium-head conditions. Solutions are engineered around the specific hydraulic parameters of the site, plant arrangement and performance objectives.
Pelton
For high head, low flow applications.
Pelton turbines are designed for high-head, low-flow hydropower applications where efficiency, control accuracy and mechanical reliability are key requirements. Injector-based flow regulation supports stable and responsive operation under variable flow conditions.
