Hydropower system impact case studies Sample Clauses

Hydropower system impact case studies. Depending on the relative capacities of the wind and hydropower facilities, integra- tion may necessitate changes in the way hydropower facilities operate to provide balancing or energy storage.These changes may affect operation, maintenance, revenue, water storage, and the capability of the hydro facility to meet its primary purposes. Beyond these potential changes, integra- tion with wind may provide benefits to the hydro system related to water storage or compliance with environmental regulations (e.g., fish passage) and create new economic opportunities.Without a proper under- standing of the impacts and benefits, it is unlikely that many hydro facility operators will be interested in using their resources to enable integration of wind power into their respective balancing areas.Thus, study of the impacts of wind integration on hydro- power operations to determine the benefits and costs could help pave the way for im- plementation of wind-hydro projects. Four of the seven participating countries expect to contribute to these studies (Australia, Canada, Norway, and the United States). Examples of hydropower system impacts include the effects on meeting fish flow requirements, reservoir levels for recreation, irrigation deliveries of water, or other pri- orities in running a hydro facility that may supersede power production. It is worth noting that some of the hydropower facili- ties being considered have these constraints while others do not.
