WATER POWER
The turbine that runs on falling water.
MICRO-HYDRO · ENGINEERING CODE NAME: “WATER BUG”
Baseline power, day and night
The one that never stops running.
Sun sets and wind drops — but water keeps falling. Pipe a stream, a spring, or a roofline of rainwater through the ANEW water turbine and it generates around the clock, the steady baseline under your solar and wind. Watch the runner spin behind its clear window while it works, and it's designed to sync with virtually any load: a home, a farm, a business, or the grid.
It lives in water, so it's built for it — engineered for full submersion and rated NEMA 4X weatherproof, in polished marine-grade stainless steel toward a targeted 50-year service life. It carries the same generator as our wind turbine, so the electrical, environmental and warranty ratings are identical. Its magnets are earth-abundant ferrite — no neodymium, no rare-earth supply risk.

Kind to the Water It Lives In
Power that shares the stream.
The runner turns inside a sealed housing behind a screened intake — a fine stainless mesh that lets water pour through while keeping fish, fry, and debris clear of the moving wheel. Nothing swims into the runner; the water does the work and moves on.
It matters because of where these machines live: streams, springs, irrigation lines, roof-fed cisterns — the same water that fish and frogs live in. A turbine shouldn't drain the creek or grind up what swims down it. This is a compact inline machine that taps the flow already passing by and hands it back, so the local ecosystem can live with it, from trout down to the smallest fry.
- Screened stainless intake — fish and fry stay clear of the runner
- Sealed, enclosed wheel — no exposed blades in the water
- Taps existing flow — no dam, no diversion of the whole stream
- Rated for the same targeted service life as the machine it protects

Fund It From Your Phone
Small projects are exactly what we fund.
A single turbine is too small for a bank to care about — and exactly the right size for ANEW. Our eScout mobile app walks you from a site audit of your own property to a funded project: your climate data, your energy use, your system size, and the funding package for the equipment you're about to buy — carbon credits, a power purchase agreement and tax credits, packaged so the project starts paying for itself from day one.
- Site audit with real climate data — before you spend anything
- Your payback period, calculated for your site, up front
- Carbon credits · PPA · tax credits packaged into your funding
- Rent or own — the funding engine structures either path
Ways to Own It
- OwnBuy outright — funding offsets the cost
- RentPower without the purchase
- PaybackCalculated for your site before you commit
- Warranty12 months — parts & labour
- Extended10-year parts & labour — typically 10% of system cost
- Repairs~30-minute field swap of your unit

Plug In. Power Up.
Tested at the factory. Working at your site.
Factory Tested & Validated
Every turbine is tested and validated at the factory before it leaves for you — it arrives already proven, not waiting to be commissioned.
Designed to Plug In
Connect it, power it up, and it goes to work. The site audit already sized it for your property, so installation day is connection day.
Grid Syncing
Designed to sync with the grid — matching its voltage, frequency and phase — or run your loads directly: DC, battery, AC mains or three-phase. Grid-tied operation follows each region's certification requirements.
Warranty, Then Some
12 months standard, parts and labour included. Extend to 10 years of parts-and-labour coverage for typically 10% of system cost. And when a repair is needed, we usually field-swap your unit — about 30 minutes, and you're generating again.
Carbon Calories
Every turbine counts its carbon calories — the CO₂ it keeps out of the atmosphere — live, from real generation data. Proof of impact, not an estimate.
Payback You Can See
Your payback period is calculated from your own site audit before you commit — and the portal tracks actual performance against it, month by month.
Your Project Manager, Included
Every turbine comes with a remote project manager — a real guide who stays with your project and helps you navigate regulatory compliance as it moves forward, from permits to grid connection. Need someone standing next to you? On-site project managers are available upon request.
The Communications Module
Every turbine is online, secure, and self-aware.
The same connectivity platform ships inside every ANEW product — so a turbine, a battery, and a solar tracker all speak the same language.
PUF Hardware Identity
A Physically Unclonable Function gives each unit a hardware-anchored, clone-resistant identity — fixing the machine to its funding asset, so its power purchase agreement, carbon credits and tax credits trade against proof of THIS unit's generation.
Always Connected
4G Cellular, Wi-Fi, Bluetooth and Zigbee, with a two-vendor cellular standard so a unit stays online across networks and borders. Networking is configured at the factory — it arrives deploy-ready.
Live Telemetry
Each device reports its own generation and health in real time — proof of what it produces, not an estimate.
Its Own Customer Portal
Every unit gets a birth certificate.
From the moment it powers on, each turbine opens its own portal on anewenergy.earth — a permanent identity record and live dashboard: where it was made, what it's generating, its warranty, its carbon and credit history, and its funding. A birth certificate that keeps writing itself across a targeted 50-year life.
- Permanent device identity, anchored by the PUF
- Live generation, health and environmental data
- Warranty, service and end-of-life recovery tracking
- Carbon credits, PPA and tax-credit history in one place
