Radyr Hydro Scheme is a 400kW small-scale hydroelectric station located in Radyr, Cardiff, Wales.[1]

The scheme makes use of the large height difference created by Radyr Weir to push water through two 4-metre-wide (13 ft), 10-metre-long (33 ft) Archimedean screw turbines.[2]

The scheme was constructed in 2015 by Dawnus, being designed by Renewables First and operated by Cardiff Council.[1][2]

Cardiff Council built the scheme to supply renewable electricity as part of a plan to lower carbon emissions in order to help Cardiff become a "one planet city" by 2050.[2][3]
