The growth of bacterial and algal slimes on the surface of water conveying system significantly reduces the net electricity generation from Tasmania's hydroelectric system. The aim of this project is to develop an optimal maintenance strategy to control this growth which will balance maintenance downtime against the potential increase in electricity production. The growth response to cleaning techniques and surface coatings will be investigated. The potential for increased power production from this renewable energy source will have considerable economic benefit for Tasmania.

输水系统表面的细菌和藻类黏液的生长大大减少了塔斯马尼亚水电系统的净发电量。 该项目的目的是制定一种最佳的维护策略，以控制这种增长，从而在维护停机时间和潜在的发电量增加之间取得平衡。对清洁技术和表面涂层的生长响应进行了研究。 利用这种可再生能源增加发电量的潜力将为塔斯马尼亚带来可观的经济效益。
