A water turbine is a rotary machine that converts kinetic energy and potential energy of water into ... Walchensee Hydroelectric Power Station in Bavaria, Germany, ...
Old Pelton wheel from Walchensee Hydroelectric Power Station, Germany. The Pelton wheel or Pelton Turbine is an impulse-type water turbine invented by American inventor Lester Allan Pelton in the 1870s. [1] [2] The Pelton wheel extracts energy from the impulse of moving water, as opposed to water's dead weight like the traditional overshot ...
The Walchensee Power Plant (German: Walchenseekraftwerk) [1] is a hydroelectric power station in Bavaria, Germany. It is a storage power station that is fed water from the Walchensee which is then released into the Kochelsee. The installed capacity is 124 MW with an annual production of 300 GWh. The power plant is south of Kochelsee, about 14 ...
Germany had a hydropower installed capacity in 2016 of 11,258 MW, including 6,806 MW of pumped storage. [1] In the same year, the country generated 21.5 TWh from hydroelectric plants, representing about 3% of the country's total electricity generation.

The Goldisthal Pumped Storage Station is a pumped-storage power station in the Thueringer Mountains at the upper run of the river Schwarza in Goldisthal, Germany. It was constructed between 1997 and 2004. It has an installed capacity of 1,060 megawatts (1,420,000 hp), the largest hydroelectric power plant in Germany and one of largest in Europe ...
The Gorlov helical turbine (GHT) is a water turbine evolved from the Darrieus turbine design by altering it to have helical blades/foils. Water turbines take kinetic energy and translate it into electricity. It was patented in a series of patents from September 19, 1995 [1] to July 3, 2001 [2] and won 2001 ASME Thomas A. Edison.
