The Restoration Hydro Turbine is a Reason to be Cheerful

Abe Schneider and Sterling Watson lay out the argument for FishSafe™ turbines in this paper published in The International Journal of Hydropower & Dams, Issue 5.

The results of the study demonstrate that the RHT is an effective way to pass juvenile alosines downstream at hydropower facilities.

When we created first FishSafe™ RHT design in 2019, we envisioned a high-performance turbine family for the small hydro market. Now, we know that FishSafe™ designs have the potential to go further.
