Renewable energy isn’t going on the day because it’s a rather open space to innovations, I’m not able to come across an innovative news about wind roses or solar panels. There are those who have managed to get renewable energy with unusual methods. LucidPipes[ produces energy from turbines where water grid pipes are located. [

LucidPipes use pipes in the city water grid. Turbines placed in pipes move with the flow of water. Hydroelectric energy, which occurs by this movement, ensures the reduction of the cost of obtaining clean water. The only requirement for the installation of the system is that the water flows down accurately. The company states that the system is designed to perform at least impact on water movements on the grid. Accordingly, LucidPipe can be removed from the circuit when the water reduces the flow.

LucidPipes seems to be a system that can be used all over the world because it can be integrated into the existing grid in the city. LucidPipes, the main drinking water grid in Portland, was used in different ways in the city. [

LucidPipes offer a sustainable model because it moves using existing resources. Of course, it requires an extra investment, but it’s not high enough to install the solar panel, wind rose field or build HES. Moreover, the change to set up the system does not lead to an environmental damage. The fact that it can be applied by local governments can also take significant steps for both green energy and savings with a small change.
