Prospect for pico-hydropower generation from 3D printed Polyethylene Terephthalate Glycol (PETG) polymer: a case study in Pusu River, Malaysia

In Malaysia, rural communities rely on fossil fuel-powered generators for electrification. A small-scale Archimedean Screw Turbine (AST) can be utilized to generate pico-hydropower for potential clean energy generation. However, no study focuses on investigating the strength and torque of 3D printed...
