Fish passage technologies provide a way for fish to navigate barriers such as dams and impoundments, preserve environmental integrity and river connectivity, and enable downstream and upstream fish migrations.
The following selected projects were chosen to develop new designs that will improve efficiency and cost, and demonstrate broad applicability to a variety of different hydropower sites.
Modular systems use separate, similar components that can be constructed off-site then easily integrated into new or existing sites and scaled to greater capacities.
4 million in funding for four projects aimed at developing and testing innovative upstream and downstream fish passage solutions for hydropower dams, while reducing construction and operation costs.
