Hydro Venus: Innovative Run-of-River Hydroelectric Power Supporting Field ICT
HydroVenus is the world's first system that generates electricity by vibrating a pendulum using water flow from nearby rivers, agricultural canals, tidal currents, and ocean currents. It is characterized by its ability to produce stable energy at low cost. Unlike conventional propeller-type tidal power generation, it is not restricted to installation at locations with a head difference and can generate energy anywhere there is flow. It also avoids the issue of entanglement with drifting debris, a common problem with traditional waterwheels. It can operate in locations where conventional solar power is difficult to implement, such as deep mountain rivers, underground waterways, and snowy regions. This enables data acquisition and communication in previously inaccessible areas.
