As a noiseless, environmentally friendly and affordable alternative to conventional water-power plants they make new locations accessible and are suited for rural areas for an autonomous, decentralized power supply. The elastomer generators consist of durable materials and have a modular, scalable, and flexible setup for different locations such as small rivers and streams.deStromerzeugungElastomere678journal article
