After a successful start into the SCCER-SoE’s second phase, the recently confirmed revision of the Energy Act comes at the right time. It provides a solid ground for fresh ideas and new developments in hydropower and geo-energy in Switzerland. Besides reflection on these evolutions, the annual conference will present insights into our research highlights, give the floor to views from outside, put a strong emphasis on the project posters, and offer many opportunities for personal exchange.
All posters are collected in the SCCER-SoE Science Report 2017.
The top three posters made by PhD students and awarded by a committee are:
Performance assessment of a new kinetic turbine prototype
Anthony Gaspoz (HES-SO Valais-Wallis), S. Richard, V. Hasmatuchi, N. Brunner, C. Münch-Alligné
Kraftwerk Juchli: Exploitation of Juchli waterfall with a small hydropower plant
Severin Stähly (EPF Lausanne), M. Bienz, G. De Cesare, A. J. Schleiss
