California’s towering New Bullards Dam, like any aging infrastructure, demanded attention and innovation as the years passed. The Yuba Water Agency modernized its dam monitoring system with cutting-edge technology—a network of IoT sensors that provide over 1,000 more data monitoring points per week and real-time insights into the dynamic movements of the dam. The returns for Yuba Water have been substantial, with a significant reduction in risk exposure and an improvement of safety standards.

In a study assessing how climate change might alter hydropower generation across the continental U.S., researchers with Pacific Northwest National Laboratory showed that except for some parts of the Southwest, generation is expected to rise in the future.
