Performance assessment of hydroelectric power plants
This study develops a methodology to provide insights regarding the performance of the hydroelectric power plants of a European player in the energy sector. In today’s energy generation programs, hydroelectric power plays an important role as it is based on a clean renewable energy source and capable of fulfilling a significant portion of the overall ...

Detecting Land Use Change Impacts on Streamflow by Combining Field Data and Water Balance Modelling
ABSTRACT Over the last half‐century, land use changes, including deforestation, urban sprawl, and open‐pit surface mining, have accelerated across the Susurluk Basin in northwestern Türkiye. This study analysed how land use changes, damming and mining activities affected basin hydrology using empirical and analytical methods and the process‐based Water

On the Economics of Ramping Rate Restrictions at Hydro Power Plants: Balancing Profitability and Environmental Costs [PDF]
This paper examines the impact of ramping rate restrictions imposed on hydro operations to protect aquatic ecosystems. A dynamic optimization model of the profit maximizing decisions of a hydro operator is solved for various restrictions on water flow ...

Political Cycles, Electricity Policy, and Mexico's Economy
ABSTRACT Electricity reform in Mexico should stimulate economic growth, improve energy efficiency, and reduce greenhouse gas emissions. This article evaluates the successes and failures of reform and draws lessons across political cycles by analyzing changes in political dynamics—often tied to policy reversals—and the legal framework during the pro ...

Conventional battery energy storage system models assume constant efficiencies, overlooking key physical limitations. This work introduces an analytical model with realistic state‐of‐charge (SOC)‐dependent efficiencies and charge acceptance, predicting that system operation concentrates in intermediate SOC ranges—a critical, overlooked behaviour ...
