Research
As part of fulfilling our mission to support hydropower research, the Hydropower Foundation has supported 73 graduate students in performing hydro-related research as part of their graduate studies.
Upon completing their studies, a majority of these students have accepted positions of employment within the hydro community, including jobs in government agencies (including national laboratories, regulatory and government power producers), power producing companies, equipment suppliers, and engineering consultancies.
The Hydropower Foundation continues to support research in hydropower through its Hydro Think Tank™ Program working together with the industry to examine challenges specific to a utility and/or region.
