Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This is a system that devises and invents a method to generate electricity again and again from the water discharge of a dam. Nowadays, Japan has stopped thermal power generation and mainly relies on nuclear power generation for restart, and is becoming increasingly dependent on nuclear power generation. Therefore, in order to increase energy sustainability, a method has been devised to increase and enhance the power generation capacity of hydropower generation, which is friendly to the global environment.
Background Art
[0002] Nowadays, instead of building dams that cost tens of billions, without destroying nature, a huge water discharge pipe is connected to the water discharge outlet of an existing dam, and power generation devices are installed from one to three places along the dam wall, enabling the power generation efficiency to be doubled or even tripled.
Disclosure of the Invention
Problems to be Solved by the Invention
[0003] ]] By installing small power generation devices at all water supply, distribution, and drainage outlets, including the water distribution outlet from the water purification plant, the water intake of the substation, and the water intake of the factory, it contributes to SDGs (Sustainable Development). By installing power generation devices suitable for the application at the intake, water distribution pipes, and drainage outlets (excluding sewage) of factories that use large amounts of water, combined with solar power generation for self-generation, the self-sufficiency rate can also be increased, which is useful for the consumption economy.
Means for Solving the Problems
[0004] Now that thermal power generation has been abandoned, there is a need to supplement alternative energy. Generating electricity from the water discharge of dams, the water intake, distribution, supply, and drainage of buildings and factories, which is currently wasted, is precisely what SDGs is about. Even in households, by installing a small power generation device at the water meter, small-scale power generation can be achieved, which is useful as a power source in emergencies.
Effects of the Invention
[0005] The development and planning of this system are currently underway, and we are striving to ensure it does not remain mere theory. The potential of this invention is enormous and holds limitless possibilities. [Best Mode for Carrying Out the Invention]
[0006] Now that thermal power generation has been abandoned, we need to find alternative energy sources. Generating electricity using the flow of water released from dams, as well as water received, distributed, supplied, and drained from buildings and factories, is one way to utilize energy sustainably. [Examples]
[0007] Even at home, a small power generator that can generate a small amount of electricity from everyday water use can be installed near the water meter, serving as a power source in emergencies. [Industrial applicability]
[0008] Electricity is the very foundation and origin of all industries, the source of electricity and energy, and the basis of a nation's power. [Brief explanation of the drawing]
