Long-Term Hydropower Plant Scheduling Considering Environmental and Economic Criteria [PDF]

open access: yes
This article is devoted to planning water-energy regimes for hydropower plants, taking into account economic and ecologic criteria. A new methodology based on a probabilistic model of water inflow has been proposed.

Search and Passage Are Decoupled for Migrating Trout Kelts at Multi‐Exit Dam

open access: yesRiver Research and Applications, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Longitudinal and lateral river connectivity have been drastically reduced over time, with hydropower development as a major driver of fragmentation. While fishways are widely implemented to support upstream migration, downstream passage remains a major challenge.

Diffusion of bioenergy in urban areas: socio-economic analysis of the planned Swiss wood-fired cogeneration plant in Basel [PDF]

open access: yes
The municipal utilities of Basel (IWB) are in the process of building a 30 MW wood-fired CHP plant in the city of Basel, a project idea that was initially propelled by visionaries from the forest sector.

Application of a Presumptive Standards Approach to Evaluate Environmental Flows in a Highly Regulated River Basin

open access: yesRiver Research and Applications, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The presumptive standards approach to environmental flows offers a method to develop interim guidelines for ecological and social‐cultural flow needs. The approach is based on deriving acceptable percent‐of‐flow limits based on naturalised flows (the absence of depletion or alteration of flow), and it can be an effective precursor to a full ...

Evaluation of hydropower upgrade projects - a real options approach

open access: yes
When evaluating whether to refurbish existing hydropower plants or invest in a new power plant, there are two important aspects to take into consideration. These are the capacity chosen for the production facilities and the timing of the investment. This

Deformation Mechanism Analysis of the Bank Slope Accumulation Body of a Certain Arch Dam

open access: yesApplied Sciences
The primary objective of this research is to quantitatively isolate the complex driving factors of slope deformation and explicitly reveal the long-term creep mechanism induced by early excavation unloading, thereby providing a theoretical basis for long-

Effects of Sediment‐Control Operations on Fish and Macroinvertebrate Communities in Dam Reservoirs

open access: yesRiver Research and Applications, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Sediments are avoided in many river and dam managements because of their adverse effects on water usage and flood control. Recently, sedimentation control measures, including sluicing, have been employed to manage sediments in river channels and restore communities in dammed rivers.

Power Purchase Agreements for Risk and Rent Sharing in Himalayan Hydropower Developments [PDF]

open access: yes
The Himalayan Rivers have an enormous hydropower potential that is still not exploited fully for the benefit of the region. Bhutan and Nepal together have an economically feasible potential of 60,000 MW of hydroelectric power generation capacity but are ...
