. The purpose of this research is to study the possibility of using water power to drive a hydraulic turbine installed in the drinking water pipeline emerging fr om a dam. The dam is constructed in the Red Sea state by the Dams Implementation Unit Kaleidoscope to solve water supply problem by harvesting a nd sto r ing rainwater. In this study the required data is collected fr om the site of the dam a nd analyzed in terms of hydrological a nd topographic studies. Using this data the flow rate of water through the pipe is estimated by applying the energy equation using Excel program analysis. Given flow rate a nd available head, the power is calculated a nd found to be about 19.39 kW. Suitable turbine a nd generato r is se lected. Finally, the results are compared with those obtained when using the program (Hydro Help - CLOVA issue, January 2010) a nd found to give very close agreements.
