A new study published in the North American Journal of Fisheries Management shows safe downstream passage of juvenile alewife (river herring) through Natel’s modern FishSafe hydro turbine.

Natel Energy is featured in the Water Power Technology Office 2021-2022 Accomplishments Report for three different projects! Read more on pages 13, 16, and 17.

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

The Cleanie Awards® announced that Natel won bronze in the 2022 Clean Energy Startup Company of the Year category. The RHT was also recognized as a Pioneer in New Technology finalist.

The RHT was a finalist this year at the MERLIN Innovation Awards, which recognize widely-applicable solutions for restoring the function or enabling the financial benefit of freshwater ecosystems.
