As I said before I think sometimes it all depends on what salesman gets to you first, and the education level of the consumer. If the EC can get the job done, the consumer might be left standing there saying "well, there's no turbine salesman in sight and I don't have time to look for one".

I would consider that the key area where the EC will surpass the turbine is in the sales push, especially if the EC can get the job done.

What is great about the ECV (in theory) is the scalability of the system. It can work from one slice to multiple units placed in sequence. Will it be as efficient as large hydro units? I don't know for sure. Can you run a large hydro unit to power a back wash village. No. I think that is where the real application for the ECV lands. Small units for small power generation, off grid. Or like the website states steam, sewerage, waste etc. companies that can save a few bucks on electricity by utilizing some ECV units. IMO
