Adaptive 3D Printed Micro-Hydropower for Resilient Grids: Digital-to-Deployment Framework
We propose to enhance the resilience of the U.S. electricity grid by enabling the rapid, adaptive, and on-demand manufacturing of site-specific micro-to-small hydropower systems for low-head dams. This approach directly addresses the nation's untapped 85,000+ non-powered dams (NPD...
