The natural hydrological regime of the Cetina River has changed significantly since the 1960s with the construction of hydroelectric power plants (HEPP) and artificial lakes (Fig. 1). Especially in the last 40 km (the type locality), the regime has moderated, showing less seasonal variation19. ...
Hydroelectric power plants generate a similar amount of electricity, and together these two renewable sources contribute to 37% of Russia’s total electricity generation. If Russia maintains its current electricity production structure and increases the share of solar and wind energy to 12.5% by 2050...
Owing to the lack of wind, hydro, and solar energy, the eastern regions rely more on thermal power generation, whereas the Central region has the largest contribution from hydroelectric power generation. In addition, the state set ultra-low NOx emissions standards for thermal power plants, and ...
