The unpredictable geology is vulnerable in the Himalayan terrain including North-East India, which is the potential hydropower hub of India. This uncertainty causes a severe technical challenge, which increases the risk of failure of hydro project construction in this region. Comprising of craggy ...

Focusing on land submergence impact, a model is proposed to minimize submergence and maximize net energy in a region with seasonal power generation, reservoir storage capacity (to meet the region''s demand during all seasons) and installed generation capacity as the decision variables. Net energy ...
The present investigation is aimed at exploring the feasibility of using vertical axis turbine which, otherwise, is ideally suited for wind energy conversion system (WECS), for hydropower generation. River water currents are potentially significant and reliable source of power generation and currently no...
Clean hydropower is produced in several parts of the world with around 60 percent coming from China, Brazil, the United States, Canada, Russia, India, Norway, Venezuela, Sweden, and Japan. Now,… China Dominates Global Hydropower Generation ...
Hydroelectric power generation significantly reduces the burning of oil and coal for power generation (Bakis 2007); thus, it remains a popular renewable energy source. Although hydroelectric power is considered a form of green energy, there are many detrimental impacts of hydropower plants—especially...
The Chuzachen hydroelectric power project (HEPP) is an 110MW run-of-river project located in Sikkim, India. It was developed by Gati Infrastructures (a subsidiary of Amrit Jal Ventures) on build-own-operate-transfer basis, at a cost of $71m. It is the first privately owned power project...
