Clean Hydro Surge: India’s New Small Hydro Policy and Top Water Innovations This Week

This post reports on the Ministry of New and Renewable Energy’s launch of a new Small Hydro Policy, designed to boost clean energy generation in North East India by tapping into the region's vast hydro potential. It highlights major hydro projects—such as the Upper Karnali initiative, accelerated hydropower development in Himachal Pradesh, and international advancements like Japan's first tidal grid connection and U.S. wave energy breakthroughs. The roundup also reviews global climate resilience initiatives, urgent water pollution challenges (from mercury and microplastics to algal blooms), and digital innovations in water informatics and AI, all shaping the future of water resources management and sustainable engineering Click here to know more.

What's New in Hydroinformatics Engineering ?

1 “Flood peaks in Mid-Atlantic U.S. watersheds show a V-shaped response to urbanization: they decrease at low urban development (below 10% PDAW), then rise sharply as urbanization increases further due to complex climate-landscape interactions. A neural network model confirmed this nonlinear behavior, underscoring the need to consider more than just urban area when predicting flood risk.”…..Hua et.al.(2025). Click here  to know more. 2 “Artificial neural network (ANN) models using climate indices outperformed ARIMA models for long-term streamflow forecasting at six Victorian stations, with the best ANN achieving Pearson R = 0.90, RMSE = 0.04, and MAE = 2.50 for six-month advance prediction. ANN’s superior accuracy highlights its suitability for operational streamflow forecasts in this region.ANN models using lagged climate indices significantly outperformed ARIMA models for forecasting streamflow at Victoria’s stations, especially at Acheron where the ANN achieved Pearson R = 0.90,...
