HYDROFLOW ENERGY
Emerging In-Pipe Hydro Energy Generation
Hydroflow represents Ecoflow's long-term commitment to expanding sustainable infrastructure solutions
CONCEPT OVERVIEW
Converting Pressure Into Power
Hydroflow Energy is Ecoflow's innovation initiative focused on converting unavoidable pressure losses in water infrastructure into clean, continuous electricity.
​
Utilities pay for energy twice: once to pressurise water, then to waste it through Pressure Reducing Valves (PRVs). Hydroflow replaces or integrates with PRVs to recover this energy.
PRV's remove tremoundous amounts of energy generated through elevation changes in the pipeline.
Hydraulic Module
In-pipe turbine converts pressure differential into rotational energy while preserving outlet pressure.
Generator Module
Converts rotation into electrical power with high efficiency and compact form.
Power Electronics
Rectification, regulation, and protection — AC or DC output depending on site.
Control & Monitoring
​Real-time measurement, diagnostics, and predictive maintenance support.
