INSTALLATIONS HYDROELECTRIC CONTACTS NEWS PONTE FORMELLO PLANT POWER 2200 KW MUNICIPALITY Carmignano RIVER Arno JUMP 4.5 m FLOW max 60 m3 / s TURBINE TYPE 2 kaplan with horizontal axis SUBJECT Civil works WORK START March 2016 END OF WORK February 2017 PROJECT DESCRIPTION The Ponte Formello hydroelectric power plant, with low head or mini-hydro, uses a flow rate of 2,000 liters per second, exploiting a head of 5.5 m with a single-regulating vertical axis Kaplan turbine. A peculiarity of this plant is its location directly on the drain of an existing Enel plant, taking advantage of the remaining height difference up to the confluence of the stream. Thanks to this particular plant, in fact, it is possible to obtain clean energy by exploiting water already derived in an already anthropized context.
