Ireland Testing Water-Powered Streetlights
Residents of Donegal County, Ireland, will soon get their evening light from water-powered street lamps. LH Ecotech’s “hydro light” is being installed for a test run on a footbridge over the River Finn in Ballybofey. The €3,000 light works when water flowing downstream passes through a 110 watt turbine, which then charges batteries to run the 30 watt LED.
