Rural electric power development: feasibility of ugwolawo micro hydro electric system

Year: 2026

Type: article

Abstract: Micro hydro power represents a viable technological pathway for converting the kinetic and potential energy of flowing water into electrical energy through generator systems. This paper investigates the feasibility of a stand alone micro hydro electric power generation system as an enabling technology for rural electrification at the Ofu stream segment in Ugwolawo, Kogi State, Nigeria. Head elevation was determined using a Garmin GPSmap 76 S Global Positioning System receiver. The float meth
