Protecting eels and generating hydropower: understanding the interplay

Eel passage at high speed, fish-safe retrofits to transform the hydro fleet, new DOE-funded projects, and the "mussel" behind clean water.

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.

This article from the Water Power Technologies Office includes a photograph of Natel's technology and encourages the adoption of turbines that are safe for fish to pass through.
