This whirlpool turbine can be installed in a week and could power up to 60 homes

• It can be installed in most rivers and canals.
• The generator could be the solution to providing low-cost power to rural areas around the world. 

This whirlpool turbine can power dozens of homes, providing energy 24 hours a day.

Belgian company Turbulent have possibly come up with a solution to generate energy for small-scale rural areas, but you need to live near a river.

The turbine can be installed in most rivers and canals, using the flowing water to produce energy – which the creators claim is enough to power up to 60 homes.
