The Vavanga scheme has recently been physically transposed to another river, as an indirect result of foreign company logging damage to catchments. New power output is upgraded to 10kW. The initiative and design was locally driven. The new turbine (Pelton) has been supported through APACE VFEG and Pelena Pty, with all other costs and effort provided by Vavanga residents. At the time of writing, intitial testing confirms a 10kW output.
Ghatere scheme is not operating as a result of local social divisions possibly arising from logging interests.
