Flow regime aspects in determining environmental flows and maximising energy production at run-of-river hydropower plants

Applied Energy, 2019
This study investigates the influence of the river flow regime type on the e-flows releases and hydropower production, constrained by eight hydrologically-based e-flows methods.

Climate change and the hydropower sector: A global review

WIREs Climate Change, 2022
Renewable sources of electricity, such as solar and wind, need to be paired with sources of reliable baseload. Hydropower is a renewable, low‐emission source of electricity baseload available throughout much of the world as an alternative to electricity ...

Testing the EKC hypothesis for the top six hydropower energy-consuming countries: Evidence from Fourier Bootstrap ARDL procedure

, 2020
Environmental degradation is an important threat to sustainable development. Economic growth and fossil fuel-based energy consumption are main factors causing environmental pollution.

Hydropower Economics [PDF]

open access: possible, 2007
The key question in hydropower production is the time pattern of the use of the water in the reservoir. The water used to produce electricity today can alternatively be used tomorrow. The analysis of the operation of hydropower is therefore essentially a dynamic one.

Water-energy-ecosystem nexus: Balancing competing interests at a run-of-river hydropower plant coupling a hydrologic–ecohydraulic approach

, 2020
The water-energy-ecosystem nexus represents a complex interlinkage that depends on the flow regime type. Inadequate environmental flows setting may adversely affect the riverine ecosystem and/or hydropower revenue. This issue was addressed quantitatively
