Design and construction of a prototype capable of producing green electricity through rainwater

The idea behind this project is that every home or building can independently produce electricity, using one of the few renewable resources not used yet:
rainwater. With this project we aim to make each independent home (if not totally, at least partially). By means of micro turbines that can be installed in homes and public buildings, you want to channel rainwater thus producing electricity.
A prototype and a first feasibility study complete with competition analysis and the possibility of patenting the idea was created.
