How To Pump Water With No Electricity

If you have flowing water on your property with at least 2 feet of drop, then you can pump that water elsewhere for free! You just need to build or buy what’s known as a “hydraulic ram pump“. The pump basically uses a percentage of the energy of the water flowing through it to pump water higher than the source of the water. This allows you to store water at a higher level on your property to allow you to gravity feed it to wherever you need it (gardens, animals, home, etc…). You could also store the water for micro-hydroelectric power generation. This is where you pump the water to a higher location so you can create pressure that you can use to run a small electric generator. This won’t make too much power but could help generate on demand emergency power for charging a battery or running some LED lights when solar or wind isn’t available.
