Seattle, Washington, USA-based Whooshh™ Innovations moves live fish safely. Whooshh's patented systems are used to “whoosh†live fish from one place to another—up and over dams, or around hatcheries, broodstock and aquaculture facilities. This is accomplished safely, gently, quickly, and very cost-effectively. For the hydropower industry, Whooshh challenges the status quo when it comes to selective fish passage. Whooshh allows more fish to pass safely, more water to be harnessed, more clean power to be generated and more revenue to be made. A summary of these benefits are: Environmental/Fisheries: More fish moved safely upriver = exponentially more returning back down. Fish transported via Whooshh spend 30-60 seconds being transported vs. hours/days of arduous climbing up a ladder. This leads to higher egg viability re: spawning upstream and lower mortality rates related to fish who wore themselves out moving up the ladders. This helps restore native fisheries back toward historical numbers. We also scan, providing superior fisheries data, and sort for invasive species. Water/Energy: Fish ladders require 5-10% of a dam's spill to operate. Using Whooshh, this is not needed. That extra water can then be used for additional clean hydropower production (or irrigation). Multiply this across the many thousands of dams around the world and this can be a significant clean energy optimization tool for the industry. More clean power for the grid, without adding new facilities. Financial: Whoosh systems are typically 50-80% less than fish ladders and other passage operations. This can translate into savings of millions of dollars for new installations. Added bonus: Time and flexibility. Whoosh systems are modular, scalable, and can be installed in a fraction of the time.
