The Dasu hydro project, on the Indus river, is the result of an initiative to produce clean energy for Pakistan, funded by the World Bank. Pre-construction activities have begun, and completion of the first 2160 MW stage is scheduled for 2021.

The study described here aims to formulate an innovative approach for sediment management, so that project benefits can be maximized and maintained.
