The paper presents the analysis of different types of impact the hydroelectric power plants’ reservoirs could make on the environment. Hydroelectric power plants (HPP) produce ecologically safe energy and correspond to the modern striving for sustainability because they are operated on renewable energy sources. At the same time they can provoke various potential dangers for the environment. The objective of the investigation is to demonstrate the interrelation between the type and structure of a hydroelectric power plant and the way its reservoir may impact on the nature surrounding the plant. These effects may be direct and indirect, positive and negative and vary from insignificant that can be easily fixed to those that are irreversible and catastrophic. The latter should be taken into account during the design of HPP.

The article examines the main trends in the use of renewable energy sources in the world. The article examines the main trends in the use of renewable energy sources in the world. The use of renewable sources is associated with the depletion of reserves of carbonaceous minerals and a decrease in greenhouse gas emissions into the atmosphere. The article presents the main, according to the authors, reasons for the incorrect determination of the potential of small hydro resources in the Republic of Tajikistan. In recent years, many small hydroelectric power plants have been built, which are ineffective. For this, the authors propose a more detailed study of the watercourse regime and the determination of its potential for the minimum and maximum tributaries and the possibility of its use, the influence of hydrological, socio-economic factors on the determination of the potential of small rivers during the construction of small hydroelectric power plants. Zoning of small watercourses is proposed for a more detailed determination of the watercourse capacity and the possibility of constructing small hydroelectric power stations on them. The influence of altitude above sea level on the output of the rated power of installations of renewable energy sources is considered. As it shows, the experience of operation and the above statistical analysis at the existing small hydroelectric power plants with an altitude of SHPPs above sea level, their nominal capacity will decrease. The decrease in the nominal output power of small hydroelectric power plants with an air-cooling system is associated with the rarefaction of atmospheric air.

The Impact

Efforts to reduce greenhouse gas emissions constitute a worldwide trend. According to this trend, there are many plans in place for the replacement of conventional electric power plants operating using fossil fuels with renewable energy sources (RESs). Owing to current needs to expand the RES penetration in accordance to a new National power system plan, the importance of RESs is increasing. The RES penetration imposes various impacts on the power system, including transient stability. Furthermore, the fact that they are distributed at multiple locations in the power system is also a factor which makes the transient impact analysis of RESs difficult. In this study, the transient impacts attributed to the penetration of RESs are analyzed and compared with the conventional Korean electric power system. To confirm the impact of the penetration of RESs on transient stability, the effect was analyzed based on a single machine equivalent (SIME) configuration. Simulations were conducted in accordance to the Korean power system by considering the anticipated RES penetration in 2030. The impact of RES on transient stability was provided by a change in CCT by increasing of the RES penetration.

In this paper the Crete’s Island power system, which is the largest isolated power system in Greece, is analyzed in two long term scenarios in order to estimate the corresponding costs and benefits associated with a significant high electricity production from renewable energy sources (RES) technologies in the period 2009-2020. In the first scenario, a 20% RES energy penetration in year 2020 is assumed, while in the second scenario the final RES energy penetration is increased to 50%, and it is achieved with the installation of hydro pumped storage systems. Long-range Energy Alternatives Planning (LEAP) software is used to develop the electricity demand model, as well as to estimate the gross electricity generation in Crete and the annual CO2 equivalent emissions for the considered scenarios. This study demonstrates that substantial RES production till 2020 is technically feasible, and provides benefits in the forms of carbon emission reductions, energy adequacy and dependency.

The Impact

To mitigate global warming, the European Union aims at climate neutrality by 2050. In order to reach this, the transportation sector has to contribute especially, which accounts for about a quarter of the European greenhouse gas emissions. Herein, electricity-based fuels are a promising approach for reducing emissions. However, a large-scale deployment of electricity-based fuels has a significant impact on the power system due to high electricity demand and the requirement to use renewable energy sources in order to be sustainable. At the same time, this fuel production could offer additional flexibility for the power system. This article investigates the opportunities and challenges of electricity-based fuels and flexible electricity-based fuel production for the European power system. In a literature analysis, the pivotal role of electricity-based fuels for climate neutrality is confirmed. To analyze the impact of flexible fuel production, European power market simulations for the year 2035 are conducted. Results indicate that flexibilization leads to an increased integration of electricity based on renewable energy sources as well as reductions in both carbon dioxide emissions and total operational costs of the power system. However, very high flexibility levels also benefit high-emission power plants and may even lead to increased emissions.

Level Of Education

Our paper studies the link between the education and the people’s opinions and views of the renewable energy sources (RES). We employ the representative data (1026 respondents) from the Czech Republic. Our empirical model did not reveal any associations between the subjective opinion on the respondents about the possibility to replace electricity generation from conventional sources (such as coal-fired or gas-fired power plants, nuclear power plants or large hydroelectric power plants) with the electricity from wind, solar radiation and biomass combustion. In addition, there seemed to be no correlation between the usage of renewable energy in the Czech Republic and the education of the respondents. However, there are strong significant association between the level of education of the respondents and the existence of opinions on the RES. Higher education means higher probability of the existence of such an opinion. Almost one third of the respondents with primary education did not have an opinion on the topic. This might be caused by an increasing interest in RES of people with higher level of education as they are likely to be more open to all discussions on the socially relevant issues in general. The lack of association between which opinion people have and their level of education is likely to indicate the marginal role of explaining the importance of RES in education.

The relevance of the transition from traditional to renewable energy sources is investigated in the paper. The most popular renewable energy sources (RES) for Ukraine and the World are highlighted. The trend of changing electricity generation by photovoltaic stations is analyzed. Peculiarities of the functioning of electric networks with RES are considered. A mathematical model of the problem of optimal control of the parameters of the normal mode of the power system (PS) with a high level of integration of photovoltaic power plants (PPS) is presented. The main components of the criterion of optimality in the control of the power system, which must be taken into account when determining it. The article investigates in more detail such a component of the optimality criterion as power equivalent to the loss due to power failure caused by unstable generation. The instability of RES generation, in particular, FES, can be caused by both unpredictable changes in meteorological factors and changes in the technical condition of FES equipment. The photovoltaic module is the main element of any FES, so the article focuses on determining the technical condition of the FEM. Therefore, the main study presented in the article is the development of a neuro-fuzzy model to determine the technical condition of the FEM, which is represented by the coefficient of the total residual resource. For this purpose, the characteristic fault to the FEM, in particular, the fault to the frame of the FEM is analyzed and presented; the fault to cable insulation; the consequences of increasing resistance and heating of the contacts at the junction of the cell busbar FEM; the decrease to the impermeability of the FEM and others.
