1 Fishfriendly Innovative Technologies for Hydropower (FIThydro) Third Regional Stakeholder Workshop Scandinavia 04 June 2018 Stockholm, Sweden Peter Rutschmann Technical University Munich

2 Key Facts Partners - 26 partners (13 research, 13 industrial) in 10 European countries - Total Budget: 7.2 Mio. Euro - FIThydro addresses decision support in commissioning and operating hydropower plants (HPP) by use of existing and innovative technologies. - The project investigates mitigation measures and strategies to develop costefficient environmental solutions for sustainable and fish friendly hydropower. - Case study regions: France/Belgium, Portugal/Spain, Scandinavia and the Alpine Region.

3 Project Overview FIThydro concentrates on hydropower and aims to increase both production and ecology of hydropower and to support development of self-sustainable fish populations. Bundle competences of the relevant disciplines of science to enhance protection of fish individuals and populations in a most cost-effective way and with maximum societal benefit. Employing high-end innovative technical solutions, methods, tools and devices (SMTDs)

4 Objectives 1. Bringing together all disciplines related to hydropower. 2. Assessing the response and resilience of fish populations in HPP affected rivers. 3. Environmental impact assessment and species protection. 4. Improving fish and fisheries impact mitigation strategies using conventional and innovative cost efficient measures. 5. Enhancing methods models and tools to cope with EU obligation. 6. Identifying bottlenecks of HPPs and deriving cost efficient mitigation strategies. 7. Risk based Decision Support System (DSS) for planning, commissioning and operating of HPPs. 8. Enhancing problem awareness and objectiveness of policy implementer, NGOs and the public

5 Management Structure The Coordinator (CO) General Assembly (GA) Steering Committee (SC) The Case Studies Management Board (CSMB) which is responsible for the management of the case studies. The External Expert Advisory Board (EEAB)

8 Test Cases

9 1. Flow and habitat Lack of wetted area Test Case Challenges Lack of or distribution of spawning habitat Lack of or distribution of rearing habitat Downstream or attraction flow Environmental flow in bypassed reach Hydropeaking 2. Sediments Deficit of sediments Surplus of sediments Clogging of substrate

10 Test Case Challenges 3. Upstream migration Missing fish pass Hight drop Missing monitoring Fish pass discharge Missing fishway data Fish entrance Other 4. Downstream migration Missing fish pass Turbine passage Too wide trash rack Missing monitoring Missing fishway data Fish entrance
