Power surge: hydroelectric demand is being met through seismic sites

The problem is that despite the huge potential these schemes hold to change the economic fortunes of the countries promoting them, many are located in seismically active zones so the development of these projects is not straightforward.Iceland's Karahnjukar dam is one of a growing number of hyd...

description	The problem is that despite the huge potential these schemes hold to change the economic fortunes of the countries promoting them, many are located in seismically active zones so the development of these projects is not straightforward.Iceland's Karahnjukar dam is one of a growing number of hydroelectric schemes around the world However, according to Mott MacDonald senior principal engineer Barnali Ghosh, although the locations would have been considered less than ideal a few decades ago, advances in seismology mean what was once too risky is now feasible.
