Water Power

This film uses archival footage and still photographs to trace the history of water power and visits operating units of various small sizes. Manufacturers and consultants are interviewed. The filmmaker speaks from personal experience. We watch the development pf his own micro-hydro unit in rural Nova Scotia from conception to production of power. This is a warm, evocative film full of useful information that matches its subject matter beautifully. “An excellent overview of the history and urrent uses of hydropower.” – Southeast Small Scale Hydropower Bulletin “An interstesting film which makes a good argument for the development of alternate energy sources.” – Landers
