By Donald Erpenbeck and Carlos Calderaro
Rehabilitation is playing a major role in solving energy needs in South America at plants such as the Salto Grande Scheme
Carlos Calderaro (Hydraulics Technical Practice Lead) and Don Erpenbeck (Vice President and Senior project manager) reflect on the market for future hydropower upgrades in South America in Hydropower & Dams (Issues six, 2018). The authors discuss the importance of planning and preparation work that goes into upgrading these plants as well as the benefits these planning studies are having on the region.
