Micro Hydro Power

RURAL POWER TECHNOLOGY

Smart hydro systems built for remote energy independence.

At Mortronix Technologies Ltd, we specialize in the design, supply, and installation of 5kW-100kW micro hydro power systems for rural areas. Our micro hydro systems are engineered to convert natural water flow into reliable, renewable energy. Designed for efficiency and low maintenance, they provide sustainable power to remote and off-grid communities across PNG. By harnessing local water resources, we deliver solutions that are both environmentally friendly and economically impactful.

Our Capability in Micro Hydro Power

Empowering Remote Communities Through Micro Hydro Power

Across Papua New Guinea, many rural communities remain beyond the reach of the national grid. Yet these areas are rich in rivers and creeks ideal for small-scale hydro power. Mortronix Technologies Ltd designs and installs micro to mini hydro systems (5 kW–1 MW) that deliver clean, reliable energy to remote regions. From feasibility studies and engineering to installation and commissioning, our team provides complete renewable power solutions that enhance livelihoods and drive sustainable rural development.

Feasibility Study

Mortronix Technologies Ltd conducts detailed feasibility studies for micro hydro power systems in Papua New Guinea. We assess site conditions, water resources, energy demand, and cost factors to ensure every project is technically and economically viable for rural electrification.

Design & Engineering

Our qualified engineers deliver custom micro hydro system designs tailored to each site’s terrain, flow rate, and community needs. We combine precision engineering and local expertise to create efficient, durable, and sustainable renewable energy solutions.

Equipment Procurement

Mortronix Technologies sources high-quality hydroelectric equipment from trusted global manufacturers. All components meet international standards for performance and durability, ensuring reliable operation in remote and off-grid areas across Papua New Guinea.

Installation & Commissioning

Our team handles every stage of micro hydro power system installation and commissioning, ensuring seamless integration, thorough testing, and a smooth handover. We deliver reliable, sustainable, and low-maintenance energy to off-grid communities across PNG.

1.4MW Hydro Power

Feasibility Study

In 2023, our team conducted a comprehensive feasibility study for a hydro power project at Apere Village, located in Mumeng LLG, Bulolo District, Morobe Province. The site is powered by the Onz River, a fast-flowing water source with significant hydro potential. Our preliminary design estimated a generation capacity of approximately 1.4 megawatts (MW)—sufficient to power a small town. However, the site shows potential for even greater output with further development. The study confirmed that the project is technically and economically feasible, making it a strong candidate for future investment to bring reliable, renewable electricity to the region.

152kW Hydro Power

Feasibility Study

In 2025, at the request of Hon. Marsh Narewec, Member for Wau-Waria, and the District Development Authority (DDA), we conducted a feasibility study for a proposed 100kW micro hydro power system in Biaru, located in Wau-Rural LLG, Wau-Waria District, Morobe Province. The study focused on the Wisi Creek, a fast-flowing water source with strong hydro potential. Our design findings revealed that the site could generate up to 152kW of power—exceeding the original target and confirming that the project is feasible. The system, once implemented, would be capable of reliably powering the entire Biaru community, providing clean and sustainable energy to an area currently outside the main electricity grid. This project marks a promising step toward rural electrification and energy independence for Wau-Waria’s remote communities.
