Renewable energy is necessary for reducing poverty and promoting rural areas by providing basic energy need for rural household. Hydropower plant has always been an important part of the world?s electricity supply providing reliable cost effective electricity and it will continue to be so in the future. Hydropower is a largely untapped renewable energy source in the world. The generation of electricity from hydropower is clean and not depleting. These features make it an important energy source for global power production. The main purposes of this research are to develop and to supply the electrical energy by using hydropower turbine and to distribute the technologies of hydropower turbine to the remote area which are far from national electrical grid. The feasibility of hydraulic turbines, theory of propeller turbine and detailed design calculation of 10 kW propeller turbines were described in this research. This research contains a complete set of detailed drawings for blade profile of propeller turbine. It can be used at sites which head is 2.5 m and flow rate is 0.75m3/s. The required head and flow rate data are collected from Kula micro-hydropower plant which is located in Kyaukse Township, Mandalay Division. The blade profile of propeller turbine is satisfied to produce required 10kW power. For the given capacity, the diameter of propeller blade is 0.443 m and the number of blade is 4. The propeller turbine is designed to generate electrical power from the natural source of water
