A few introductions - (18/06)

We thought it would be useful to give a bit of background as to how we got to where we are today and in doing so introduce some of the companies/organisation's that Torrs Hydro New Mills have worked with - it certainly wasn't a case of finding a fast flowing river with a weir and sticking a turbine in a big hole - if only !

Firstly we have Mann Power Consulting Ltd

Mann Power Consulting Ltd brought the Archimedean Screw turbine into the UK for the first time, and has been at the forefront of supplying this equipment for hydro-generation projects since 2004.

They are a small team committed to providing a friendly, efficient service from feasibility study right through to final commissioning and anywhere in between.

For the Torrs Hydro New Mills project, they carried out the initial feasibility study and system design, (which was subsequently developed by Western Renewable Energy - more about WRE later in the week) and supplied the Archimedean Screw.
