Could the flood protection be done smarter, safer and with lower cost?
Testing a solution with a intake dam and a tunnel with capacities higher than Q200 from upstream the populated area, combine the solution with HP production and compare it to traditional flood protection and cost.
In Utvik is a new powerplant rebuilt after a flood in 2017. Comparison of cost for protection measures in the river and cost of power plant vs less extensive measures and a flood tunnel to the sea combined with Hydropower.
The same could be done in the neighbor village and is a discussion in Stryn. Three interesting cases.
