1.1 Background of Study
280.39 square miles which constitutes 4.96% of Palawan's total area. This
renewable energy. By far in 2005, some 2950 TWh of electric energy is generated
from hydropower or 90% of renewable energy and 16% of total electric energy
rotational energy for further use. In principle, there is no restriction on either the
liquid or the use for the energy developed. However, in most cases, these are
Tigwayan. The water in that stream is from the Tigwayan river. There is also a site
located near the tigwayan river and most of the people there are indigenous people.
The stream is used by the villagers to gather some water supply for their everyday
needs. Tigwayan is known to be 3km away from the national highway of Bataraza
certain stream such as volume flow rate, depth, head and other aspects to consider
for the evaluation. This research also aims to provide the information of how
suitable the stream for hydroelectricity harnessing for the demand of that certain
site.
1.To gather data about the stream (volume flowrate, head, area and other
aspects)
population are in tigwayan. Base on the percentage of inhabitants in that area there
over 354 inhabitants in that area. The number of houses is also estimated by

*Q=V (A)
The cross-sectional area for river stream multiplying the average water depth(D)
and width(W)
*A=W x D , *D=(O+D1+D2+D3+D4+D5+D6+D7+O)/9
presented in equation. Q is the volume flow rate (m^3/s). H gross head (m).
*Ph2O= ρgHQ
*efficiency =Ph2O/ρgHQ
=293kW/hr / ρgHQ
*293kW/hr = ρgHQ
*Flow method
Is used for measuring the velocity of the stream of water at a certain point and a
certain time. Flow can be calculated with a measuring tape, Bottle, Timer. Flow
Then measure 3 depths along the channels cross section then get the average
point A1 then stop the timer if it crosses point A2 then repeat it several times

2017 in Sitio Tagpinasao, Barangay Salogon, Brooke's Point, Palawan. Which has
river discharge of 290 liters per second. The 40-kW hydro power plant is a joint
recycled back to the earth through the process of the water cycle. Though it is
water make the hydropower a reliable source of energy. The China, for instance,
has its highest source of energy through the hydroelectric power plant. Unlike the
use of fossil fuel, biomass, and nuclear as a source of energy, hydroelectric energy
does not have waste products. No emission and radiation are harmful to the
better control their consumption and ultimately save energy. This paper asks which
presented that illustrates how and why feedback works. Relevant features of
feedback are identified that may determine its effectiveness: frequency, duration,
feedback work best. In spite of considerable data restraints and research gaps, there
is some indication that the most successful feedback combines the following
breakdown, is presented in a clear and appealing way, and uses computerized and
interactive tools.
Hydroelectric dams range from the giant to the quite small. When completed, the
Three Gorges Dam on the Yangtze River in China will be the largest electricity
generating plant of any kind in the world. Planned for completion in 2011, the dam
will have a capacity of 22,500 megawatts. On the other end of the scale, the
27.5 megawatts.
