Natel Energy is announces the commencement of a feasibility study conducted for Patriot Hydro for retrofitting the Garvins Falls Hydropower Project with Restoration Hydro Turbines (RHTs).
New FishSafe™ runner designs for NYPA's 940 MW St. Lawrence-FDR Project predict over 98.5% eel survival at efficiencies matching the existing turbines, with no civil works or lost generation.
Senior Hydropower Technical Associate Tatiana Marzan and researchers at ORNL found, through detailed analysis of costs associated with fish exclusion, that FishSafe™ RHTs were more cost-effective.
