Pelton Turbine
The Pelton runner is similar to a classic water wheel. Water hits the centre of two half-shells (buckets) and is deflected through almost 180°. This converts all of the water’s kinetic energy into mechanical energy, which is used to generate electricity.

Pelton turbines are suitable for high heads of 80 to 1,000 metres and small volumes of water. An advantage of this type of turbine is that each nozzle can be controlled separately. This makes it easy to compensate for fluctuations in water flow.
