It is a pleasure to present this compilation and outline
of the ongoing master theses and research fellowships
within hydropower at NTNU and HSN. This represents
a vital and important part of HydroCen – The Norwegian
Research Centre for Hydropower Technology. The
centre is a cross-disciplinary collaborative platform,
with NTNU as host institution and SINTEF Energy,
NINA and the Norwegian Hydropower Centre as key
partners.
The catalogue shows an diversity in its approach
towards important research-issues regarding hydro-
power technology. The strategic mission in HydroCen
is to develop new solutions and new knowledge
to strengthen the value creation in the Norwegian
hydropower sector and secure a solid base for further
growth for renewable energy. The people and projects
presented here define the competence and knowledge
that will bring us the future of innovation for hydropower
in Norway and abroad.
