I don't think you'd get enough water pressure that way.

Just a question of height difference. 100m = 10bar

I just remembered this video i watched a while ago with a 2.5kW generator https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=h_5wpkMmCOY

That one just has a head(height difference) of 60m so 6bar and it works just fine
