Besides physical hydraulic model studies, Hydro Lab has successfully carried out the field sediment sampling followed by laboratory analyses for more than 100 different hydropower projects in Nepal. In addition, several projects on reservoir sedimentation, turbine efficiency measurement were also conducted by Hydro Lab.
The International workshop jointly organised by Hydro Lab, Nepal and International Centre for Hydropower (ICH), Norway was successfully completed. The workshop was conducted from 03 - 08 November 2022. The opening session, chaired by Mr. Shiva Kumar Sharma, Chairman Hydro Lab, was started with the welcome speech from Dr. Meg B. Bishwakarma, General Manager, Hydro Lab. The programme was addressed by Mr. Tom Solberg, Project Director, ICH and the special guest, Ms. Torun Dramdal, Ambassador, Royal Norwegian Embassy. Finally, the opening session was completed with the key note lecture from Prof. Dr. Haakon Støle, Sediment Systems, Norway.
