Augustine and the Minuscule Hydro-power plant

---

This is the story of a college graduate who constructed a mini-Hydro power plant with local materials to power his village...

There are talents and Brains all over the continent of Africa, in millions of brilliant individuals; some of this innovative skills are lying fallow and dormant in several youth, only a few has tapped into their full potentials by implementing this talents in their various regions. A ship loads of this talents are still waiting to be tapped!

Despite the Socio-economical conditions in the continent, a handful of this intelligent youth still manifested with their innovative skills. It is the duty of a Nation to help develop local talents by all means, that is the way forward for any country that wishes to attain greatness.

A college graduate with a degree in Electronic and Computer Technology; Augustine Otuokwa Ogar by name has fabricated a minuscule Hydro-Electric Power station with a 200 Watts capacity which is capable of generating electricity for it's surrounding village together with the generating site of the Mini-plant.

Located in Cross River State of Nigeria West Africa, in a village called Mgbaeshuo village of wula community; Eastern Boki, Boki Local Government. Mr. Augustine had used local materials carefully selected to meet the power generation requirement.

MODE OF OPERATION

After construction, Kinetic Energy of the Flowing stream/River was converted into Electric Energy usable/consumable by the villagers.

When the Turbine spins, the Electromagnetic Field converts the Mechanical Energy into Electric Energy. The flow rate of the stream water is slow because it is not a "Dam" or a waterfall, i was able to convert the small stream with low flowing water to bring pressure and fall like a real time Dam- Augustine Otuokwa

The energy is produced on a little-scale with "run off" installation of a naturally flowing stream of water to rotate and spin the turbines. With speed, the water moves past the turbine; knocking it's blades and producing a rotational motion which converts the Kinetic energy of the water into Mechanical Energy. After this processes, the water flows out of the little stream and flows continuously down the stream.

A SOLUTION TO ENERGY CRISIS

Here is a solution to power generation privatization, only if the Government opens it's eyes and foster intelligent youths in every corners of the Country who could produce a long lasting solution to inconsistent Energy which is crippling the Economy of so many developing countries.
