Seminar on Challenges Facing Hydropower

  02/09/2009
The European Small Hydropower Association together with the European Water Partnership present a first in series of training seminars on 1st and 2nd October 2009 to discuss some of the most critical challenges that the hydropower sector is facing today. The seminar will be organised in the Renewable Energy House, Brussels (Belgium).
 

 

The aim of this seminar is to provide a platform for discussion between all parties on topics such as

 

  • The reserved flow seen from authority-producer level perspectives as well as demonstrated by case examples from Slovenia and Norway; 

  • The making of River Basin Management Plans - How to integrate the targets of the two directives (Directive on the promotion of the renewable energies & Water Framework Directive) to the National Renewable Energy Action Plans and to the River Basin Management Plans which are both currently being drafted by Member States?

  • Certification for Hydro - Would a European level certification for hydro be possible and what would be the future prospects of it?

 

The seminar also takes participants to a site visit to see a small hydropower plant in the Wallonia region in Belgium and to a dinner at the Chaudfontaine Castle.

Columbia Wastewater Treatment Plant Upgrade

John Dooley, director of utilities and engineering for the City of Columbia (US), talks about a USD40 million project for the city's Metropolitan Wastewater Treatment Plant. The capacity will increase to 150 million gallons/day (now 80 million gallons), and the pumping facility is to be relocated on the property. Requests for quotes are being prepared to be published soon.
