La présence de barrages crée deux incidences potentielles sur les populations d’anguilles : la restriction de l'accès à l'habitat en amont et la mortalité dans les turbines durant l'avalaison. [...] La mortalité par avalaison des anguilles argentées migrantes est en fonction de la taille des anguilles(les plus grandes étant plus souvent tuées que les petites), de la dimension du barrage(en général, les petits barrages tuent proportionnellement plus d’anguilles) [, ] du type, de l'espacement et des conditions de fonctionnement des turbines.
