Abstract
This chapter provides a brief historical review of downstream bypass problems in Sweden. This is followed by a description of the Swedish situation today, with a focus on several case studies that have evaluated rehabilitating downstream bypass efficiency at hydroelectric plants in rivers of different sizes and for several different species. Finally, the chapter discusses the needs and potential directions for future studies.
