The smallest hydroelectric systems, with power generation below 5 kW is termed as pico-hydro power. The Konkan region of the Maharashtra state, receives a very heavy rainfall, to the tune of 3000 to 4500 mm from June to September. Due to high intensity, duration and frequency of the rainfall, the electricity transmission lines get damaged due to falling of trees or bad weather. The rainwater which falls on the roof tops of the houses has a great pico-scale hydroelectric potential. This rainwater, which falls on roof tops possesses the potential energy. If this water is made to fall on a turbine with a high velocity, electricity can be generated. Houses in Konkan region, having an average height of 8 m, or more (ground floor, first floor and roof) and assuming a roof water collection area of about 10×10 m; by calculation, it is observed that, there is a potential to generate about 50 to 60 W of hydro power. This power can lit four to five LED lights of 10 W capacities each.Keywords

The pelton turbine was developed at College of Agril. Engineering and Technology, Dapoli. It was connected to permanent magnet direct current motor acting as generator by using belt and pulley arrangement. The developed pico hydro electric generator was used to generate electricity from 1 lps discharge and 1 m head. It was found working satisfactory with development of 42 W power.Keywords
