Wir planen regelmässige Webinare, in denen wir Projekte und Methoden vorstellen, die für die Gewässerrevitalisierung und Wasserkraftsanierung relevant sind. Nachfolgend finden Sie die kommenden Webinare mit Informationen zu Inhalt und Sprache der Präsentationen inkl. Anmeldelink, sowie die vergangenen Webinare.
Gerne nehmen wir Vorschläge für weitere Webinare entgegen (E-Mail).
Speakers: Sterling Watson & Abe Schneider (Natel Energy)
Supporting clean hydroelectric power generation while also protecting freshwater diversity is in many cases an unmet challenge. Exclusion infrastructure (i.e., fine fish screens, behavioural guidance infrastructure, and bypasses) can protect fish from turbine entrainment when it is feasible, but also limits the available passage routes for fish and constrains hydropower generation. Alternatively, turbines designed to pass fish downstream safely can maintain connectivity for downstream migrating species while also enabling uninterrupted hydropower operation. Integrating safe downstream passage into normal hydropower operations through the use of fish-safe turbines (fish inclusion) can reduce cost and complexity while facilitating downstream migration. We will describe the performance characteristics and application range of a new propeller-style turbine, called the Restoration Hydro Turbine (RHT), as well as passage testing learnings and results for American eel, river herring, and rainbow trout.
🇬🇧 The webinar will be held in English.
🙋♀️🙋♂️ After the presentation, there will be an opportunity for discussion and questions to the speakers.
