Kadapawo Gerald Opolot
I am a highly motivated and passionate engineer with a strong background in Hydraulics-Hydropower infrastructure, Water Resources and sustainable development. I am dedicated to creating innovative solutions for harnessing clean and efficient hydropower sources to meet the world's increasing energy demands.
I have gained extensive experience working on various hydropower projects throughout my career. I possess a comprehensive understanding of hydropower systems, including design, operation, and maintenance. I am well-versed in the principles of Hydraulics, hydrology, Project management and Dam safety, which allows me to effectively analyze and optimize hydropower installations and development.
My strengths lie in my ability to conceptualize and design hydropower projects, ensuring they are environmentally friendly, economically viable, and socially responsible. I am skilled in using various software tools and simulation models to assess the potential impact of hydropower facilities on ecosystems, communities, and water resources.
I have a proven track record of successfully leading multidisciplinary teams and managing projects from conception to completion. I am adept at collaborating with stakeholders, including government agencies, local communities, and investors, to ensure project goals are met while maintaining regulatory compliance and sustainable practices.
I am committed to staying updated with the latest advancements in hydropower technologies and industry trends. I actively participate in conferences, workshops, and training programs to enhance my technical knowledge and skills. I am also passionate about advocating for renewable energy and the importance of hydropower in achieving a sustainable future.
Overall, I am a dedicated and results-oriented engineer who is eager to contribute my expertise to the development of clean, reliable, and cost-effective hydropower solutions. I am confident that my technical knowledge, leadership abilities, and passion for renewable energy make me a valuable asset to any hydropower projects.
I have been mentored/ (continued to be) by the finest the industry of hydro power has had and this gives me the task to carry on with good legacies and to mentor others the same way.And as such. I was selected as one of the Top 10 New Faces of Civil Engineering-Professionals for 2021.
The American Society of Engineers (ASCE) rightly believes that I am amongst those who represent the bold and humanitarian future of civil engineering.

The motivation for optimised inspections and monitoring is aimed in achieving effective preventive maintenance. When inspection is not in time to enhance an early repair, it could cost three to nine times more.
This paper presents some criteria for optimising the design of a surveillance system for routines, it gives the motivation for the frequent data acquisition and analyses in enhancing dam safety. It is supported on two principles of reliability engineering: Bathtub curve, modelling using theoretical approaches of statistics and data driven modelling.
A concrete gravity dam is adopted as a case study particularly considering Nyagak dam structure
