Abstract

A manufacturing method for a hydroelectric power generation system includes removing a transaxle including a first motor generator from an end-of-life hybrid electric vehicle, and assembling a hydraulic turbine to a rotary shaft coupled to the first motor generator in the removed transaxle. The rotary shaft to which the hydraulic turbine is assembled may be an engine shaft connected to an engine of the hybrid electric vehicle when the transaxle is mounted on the hybrid electric vehicle.
