With about 60% of the global hydropower capacity in the world, Francis turbines are the most widely used type of hydro turbine. Francis turbines are used primarily for medium heads and large flow applications. Forward Hydro supplies cost- effective Francis units in standardized or customized designs and packages for small hydropower plants.
