Описание: Written by two of the world s leading experts on sediment management, 'Extending the Life of Reservoirs' provides guidance on adopting sediment management practices for hydropower and water supply dam projects. It explains how ensuring long-term resilience of critical infrastructure requires early and constant attention to reservoir sedimentation processes, which can reduce the storage capacity of reservoirs and damage hydro mechanical equipment. The report provides concrete guidance on safeguarding against these effects and preserving the many important services of hydropower and dam projects, including water supply, irrigation, and renewable electricity. In particular, it stresses the importance of integrating sediment management into the early planning phases of projects. 'Extending the Life of Reservoirs' is designed to assist those evaluating dam and hydropower proposals. While for the primary audience includes policy makers, lending agencies, and general practitioners, the level of detail provided in the report should appeal to a wide array of stakeholder groups. The content is neither overly technical nor overly simplistic, and aims to provide practical and useful information. Importantly, this report provides a new perspective on the importance of sediment management that is not found in prior work. It stresses the value of sediment management measures as a robust adaptation measure to support sustainable hydropower. The techniques described in the report make sense regardless of future climate changes, but in many cases have even more value when uncertainty over future hydrological patterns is taken into account."

Readers gain new insights into the reality behind hydropower policy changes as they have evolved over the last decade.
Irrigation, Timber, and Hydropower is the story of the Flathead Irrigation Project and the Flathead Lake Dam, two early twentieth-century enterprises whose consequences are still felt today on the Flathead Reservation in western Montana.
The Flathead Irrigation Project was originally promoted by Sen. Joseph M. Dixon as benefiting the Flathead Reservation tribes, but it soon became a medium for using tribal funds and assets to benefit white homesteaders. Garrit Voggesser traces the history of natural resource conflicts on the reservation and recounts how competing interests fought at the expense of the tribes.
In the 1920s and early 1930s a national controversy swirled around the dam site at the foot of Flathead Lake. The lease for the dam site was granted to the Montana Power Company over the objections of the tribes, but the tribes retained ownership and were able to negotiate from a position of strength fifty years later when the lease came up for renewal. Voggesser describes the struggles of the Confederated Salish and Kootenai Tribes that ultimately secured their control of reservation resources and helped to build a better future for tribal members.

Описание: Hydropower is the energy derived from water that is falling or fast-running. It is a type of renewable energy. There are four types of hydropower, namely, run-of-river hydropower, storage hydropower, pumped-storage hydropower and offshore hydropower. Devices such as trompe and watermill run on hydropower. The electricity produced by hydropower is known as hydroelectricity. It can also be used to store potential energy between two reservoirs. Hydroelectric power plants, which include reservoir, are used to exploit the energy of falling water. Hydropower can be used for irrigation and operations such as carried out dock cranes, gristmills, textile mills, ore mills, etc. This book is a compilation of chapters that discuss the most vital concepts in the field of hydropower. It elucidates new techniques and their applications in a multidisciplinary approach. As this field is emerging at a rapid pace, the contents of this book will help the readers understand the modern concepts and applications of the subject.

Описание: The production of electricity using the power of hydro and thermal energies presents a sustainable and renewable energy production technology. Hydropower is a mature technology, used in over 160 countries globally, where the kinetic energy of falling water is converted to electricity in hydropower plants. This book, divided into eight chapters, provides the reader with information on fundamental concepts and terminologies of the hydropower technologies. Each chapter can be read as stand-alone comprehensive content to gain knowledge on a particular area of relevance or interest. Readers are presented with a concise compilation of the best current knowledge on the types, mechanics and sustainability in the planning, management, and operations of hydropower technologies.

Описание: Hydropower is the power that is harnessed from the energy of water that is falling or fast running. It is a form of renewable energy source that is used for irrigation, for operating mechanical devices like textile mills, sawmills, domestic lifts and ore mills. It is also used for generating electricity. Hydropower projects can be of various types, such as small hydro, micro hydro, conduit hydroelectricity projects, conventional hydroelectric, pumped-storage hydroelectricity, etc. This book unfolds the innovative aspects of hydropower and hydropower technologies, which will be crucial for the holistic understanding of the subject matter. It studies, analyzes and upholds the pillars of hydropower and its utmost significance in modern times. The book is appropriate for those seeking detailed information in this area.
