With support from the U.S. Department of Energy, Pacific Northwest National Laboratory has been developing and testing a high-performance non-toxic fouling-resistant coating that can be applied to solid and flexible hydropower structures.
Come see lab and field test performance results with live mussels, hear about the effort to commercialize and bring the coating to the hydropower community, and feel coated samples of solid surfaces and flexible fish diversion netting.
