Examples of the present disclosure are related to systems and methods for utilizing effluent pipeline to generate energy. More particularly, embodiments disclose positioning a turbine within a bypass pipeline, wherein the bypass pipeline has a greater diameter than the effluent pipeline.

The present disclosure first uses a pumping device to retrieve water using an internal power source from a water source. Then, in accordance with a wind parameter and a solar parameter, wind-powered and solar-powered pumping devices are selectively engaged to replace the pumping device. The water is stored in the water storage device in a higher place. As the water runs through an inlet pipe, it is pressurized to drive a first hydraulic generation device. Then the water's potential energy is used to drive a second hydraulic generation device as the water is recycled to the water source. The produced electricity is delivered to the pumping device and, if any remaining, then to a light device for illumination.

A fluid energy harvester, including a housing having at least one port and an outlet, and the housing defining at least one fluid passageway therein. The fluid energy harvester also includes a converter disposed within the housing and configured to convert at least a portion of potential energy in an exhaust fluid, a generator operably coupled to the converter and configured to generate an electrical current from the converter, a charging controller electrically coupled to the generator, and a storage medium electrically coupled to the generator and configured to store the electrical current generated by the generator. The fluid energy harvester further includes a nozzle configured to control a flow of the exhaust fluid.

A transient liquid pressure power generation system can include a liquid source and a transient pressure drive device fluidly coupled to the liquid source. The transient pressure drive device can include a drive component, and a valve to cause a high pressure transient wave in the liquid traveling toward the liquid source to operate the drive component. The system can also include a liquid velocity continuation component downstream of the transient pressure drive device and a bypass conduit. Additionally, the system can include a heat source to receive liquid from the transient pressure drive device and heat liquid returning to the liquid source. The liquid velocity continuation component can operate to maintain continuous liquid flow from the liquid source to the heat source from the transient pressure drive device or the bypass conduit to cause immediate maximum liquid flow velocity from the transient pressure drive device upon opening the valve.

Systems, methods, and apparatuses are provided for generating clean energy. A Savonius vertical-axis wind turbine, including a shaft configured to rotate about a first axis, aerofoil blades transversely mounted with respect to the first axis, on the shaft, transversely extending outwards from the shaft to a first distance from the shaft, a generator coupled to the shaft, the generator configured to generate electricity from rotational energy of the shaft when the shaft rotates about the axis; and a first curved wind shield having a semi-circular shape defined by a curvature, each point of the curvature is a fixed second transverse distance from the shaft, the first curved wind shield positioned at the fixed second transverse distance from the rotating shaft, and the curved wind shield is rotatable about the rotating shaft, at the fixed second distance. In some embodiments, the wind shields increase productive wind circulation to the turbine blades.
