This paper presents the ReHydro Modernisation Survey, providing empirical insights into Hydropower Modernisation across Europe. Based on responses from utilities representing 121 GW of installed capacity, it explores refurbishment drivers, barriers and future flexibility requirements.
Hydropower operators must deliver greater flexibility, extend operating ranges and modernise ageing assets while limiting technical and investment risks. Discover practical engineering approaches and industrial case studies in our new white paper.
This paper presents a techno-economic assessment of battery hybridization for small run-of-river hydropower
All members of the Bilasurf project met at SuperGrid Institute’s Hydropower headquarters in Grenoble, the 15th and 16th of December 2025.
Sylvain dirige notre département de stockage d’énergie et équilibrage réseaux et explore l’énergie hydraulique et de la flexibilité.
The present paper investigates a hybrid frequency support strategy, using supercapacitors integrated into a pumped-storage project for an island grid.
The article first describes the SE Integrator project and the technical benefits of different sizes of Li-ion battery.
We investigate with CNR several options to maximise productivity while improving environmental performance through the use of highly flexible Francis turbines.
The Paris Pledge backs pumped storage & calls on EU & national policymakers to enable long-duration storage for Europe’s clean energy goals.
This paper focuses on modular multilevel converter (MMC) with distributed energy storage modules directly connected to MMC modules (ES-SMs).
