Ice Booms

Hydroelectric operations in colder northern climates often experience costly service interruptions due to ice buildup and blockage of critical intakes. Worthington offers ice boom engineering, design and fabrication. Successfully designed and installed, ice booms will allow for the creation of a permanent cover upstream of intakes to reduce frazil ice accumulation and allow for the free flow of water into plant intakes.

Worthington's ice booms are custom engineered and designed according to site specific conditions. Contact us to discuss your project goals in detail
