Abstract
Systems and methods related to floating powerhouse for hydropower turbine systems are presented. A turbine system may be coupled to floating powerhouse that can include a floating platform. A pressurized water delivery system can be coupled to the floating powerhouse and can accommodate vertical and/or horizontal movement of the floating power house. The pressurized water delivery system can include a segmented penstock coupling the turbine to an intake, and individual segments of the penstock can be free to rotate about a substantially horizontal axis, such that in response to variations in a tailwater height, the floating platform rising and falling does not disrupt fluid flow from a fluid source.
