Tip: Try just a one word search first to get the most results.A series of turbines can be used as the river progresses.
These systems require little to no maintenance. The initial setup cost and environmental impact is minimal in comparison to the cost of building dams.
There is no risk of flash flooding caused by a breached dam, and no risks during construction of a dam.
The environmental benefits speak for themselves:
- No flooding of large catchment areas, resulting in no effect on the natural ecosystem in the river valley.
- No silt accumulation in the dam basin
- No need for fish ladders
- No additional greenhouse gases (Dams create greenhouse gases)
In summary, the development of damless hydro technology is being regarded very favorably by all concerned. It is likely that it will take the lead as the future choice for hydro electricity generation.
