NOVELTY - The invention relates to an electric hydro-tornado meant to be used in the field of hydro-energy, for producing electric power by increasing linear speed of rivers without dam construction or water delivery works. According to the invention, the electric hydro-tornado is a hydrotechnical construction on the bank (1) of a river which increases the liner speed (v1) of the water by changing its flowing direction through a tornado wall (5) placed under an angle of less than 90 degrees , on a distance of 10...15 m from the river bank (1), generating a water flow-rate at an increased speed (v2), which is named tornado canal (6), where v2=x2/ T, and a floating submerged turbine (8) placed in the tornado canal (6), which floats with an axle in vertical position, below the water level, suspended on a floating platform (7) and, by some curved blades, fixed on the axle with rotors, takes over the water pressure which generates the rotation motion and produces hydro-energy power, while the top part of the axle which is located above the water level transmits the rotation of the turbine (8) to an electric generator (11), in front of the turbine (8) and sidewise there being a water stream deflector (9) consisting of a straight part placed upstream for water flow blocking, in the same sense, upon the blades, and of a part which follows the curvature of the turbine (8) and protects the blades against turbulences, the rotation of the turbine (8) being ensured thereby, the turbine rotation being transmitted from the axle of the turbine (8) to the generators (11) by a rotation transmission system (10), either by gins with transmission belts, or by gear wheels while using, preferably, low rotation generators (11), in the range of 120...240 rpm, where, for protecting the turbine (8) against floating objects which should be deviated, a turbulence material deflector (12) is used, as well as a protective net against fish, which is fixed on some bearing pillars (4) under an angle able to permit the turbulence material to slip.
