A remote community in Marikina plans to put up a small hydro-electric plant to service six closely located barangays estimated to consume 52,650,000 KW-hrs per annum. Expected flow if water is 1665 m³/min. The most favorable location for the plant fixes the tail water level at 480 m. The manufacturer of turbine generator set have indicated the following performance data: turbine efficiency 87%; generator efficiency is 92%; loss in head work not exceed 3.8% of available head. In order to pinpoint the most suitable area for the dam, determine the head water elevation in m.
