Harnessing Clean Energy: Battling Algae to Boost Hydropower Efficiency

Hydropower remains one of the most reliable and sustainable sources of energy, contributing significantly to global electricity generation. However, the efficiency of hydropower facilities can be hampered by various factors, including the growth of algae in reservoirs and waterways. Algae accumulation not only reduces water quality but also compromises turbine performance and facility efficiency, leading to decreased output and increased maintenance costs.

In this article, we explore how LG Sonic’s innovative algae control technology is revolutionizing the management of hydropower facilities, ultimately enhancing their performance and optimizing energy production.
