Abstract

Hydropower has many advantages but also some disadvantages. In the last decade river runoff hydropower plants did not overcome this disadvantages. Only in the last few years new concepts have been invented and investigated. The present paper presents the TUM Hydro Shaft Power Plant (in the following denominated as TUM HSPP) a new concept invented and tested at the Technische Universität München, Germany. The TUM HSPP is an efficient, economic and ecologic solution which offers fishes a full downstream migration path and full mechanical protection from being sucked into the turbines. The concept has been extensively investigated in model and small prototype scale including tests with three different fish species.
