HS v2022 Code: 841011

About turbines; hydraulic turbines and water wheels, of a power not exceeding 1000kw

HS code 841011 covers hydraulic turbines and water wheels with a power output not exceeding 1000kW. These types of turbines are essential components in hydroelectric power generation, a crucial renewable energy source that plays a significant role in the global energy mix. Hydraulic turbines convert the kinetic energy of flowing water into mechanical energy, which is then used to drive generators and produce electricity. This industry is vital for meeting the world's growing energy demands while reducing reliance on fossil fuels and promoting sustainable development.

Production process

The production of hydraulic turbines and water wheels involves several key steps. First, the turbine components, such as the runner, casing, and shaft, are precisely engineered and manufactured using specialized machinery and techniques. The runner, which is the rotating part of the turbine, is designed to maximize the conversion of water flow into mechanical energy. The turbine casing is engineered to direct the water flow onto the runner, ensuring efficient energy transfer. Finally, the turbine is assembled and tested to ensure optimal performance and reliability.

Production inputs

The production of hydraulic turbines and water wheels requires a range of inputs, including high-quality steel and other metals for the turbine components, specialized manufacturing equipment, and skilled labor. Additionally, the industry relies on advanced engineering and design capabilities to develop efficient and reliable turbine systems. The availability of suitable water resources, such as rivers, dams, and reservoirs, is also a critical input for the installation and operation of these turbines.

Production outputs

Hydraulic turbines and water wheels produced under HS code 841011 are primarily used in the generation of hydroelectric power, which is then distributed through the electrical grid and consumed by various end-users, including residential, commercial, and industrial sectors. The output of this industry may also be used in other applications, such as 841012 Turbines; hydraulic turbines, of a power exceeding 1000kW, 841013 Turbines; steam and other vapor turbines, and 841090 Parts of hydraulic turbines and water wheels, including regulators.
