About HydroCen

We are a research center for environmentally friendly energy.

Researchers will deliver knowledge and innovative solutions to Norwegian hydropower.

The goal is for the research to contribute to Norwegian hydropower being able to meet complex challenges and opportunities in the future's renewable energy system.

Norwegian University of Science and technology (NTNU) is the host institution and main research partner in HydroCen together with SINTEF Energy and the Norwegian Institute for Natural Research (NINA). HydroCen has around 50 national and international partners from research, industry and administration.

Avslutningskonferanse: Høydepunkter fra åtte år med forskning på vannkraft

Author: Juliet Landrø

Bedre damsikkerhet og nye turbindesign, løsninger for å få fisk forbi tubiner og smartere verktøy for produksjonsplanlegging er noen av nyvinningene fra HydroCens forskning. I tillegg er det nå mulig å finne feilene før de rammer generatoren og beregne både levetida til vannnkrafttunnelene og finne ut hvor mange fisk som gyter i elva.
