The hydraulic ram is a fascinating device that uses energy recovery from water to generate sustainable hydropower. Unlike traditional hydroelectric power plants, the hydraulic ram does not require a power connection, making it an environmentally friendly source of energy. Known by different names such as water pressure pump, water hammer, ram pump, shock pressure pump or ram pump, the hydraulic ram uses the power of water to generate energy. In contrast to a water turbine, the ram uses this energy directly and immediately to pump the water itself.
