The article presents an overview of research and social-political literature on evolvement and development of Cheboksary hydroelectric power plant. The authors carried out the analysis of scientific papers and publications using such scientific methods as system analysis, logical and structural research. The content of the article considers two periods in the historiography of the topic, each of which has its own peculiarities. The first period is mainly characterized by social-political literature. Publications are devoted to the grandeur of Cheboksary HPP construction. Particular attention is paid to the works, which were published by immediate participants of construction of the hydro-engineering complex. Historiography of this period mainly notes positive aspects of construction, negative aspects are either disregarded or considered insignificantly. The second period is characterized mainly by publications in periodicals. They are observed to contain more critical statements about the state of the hydroelectric power plant and Cheboksary reservoir. Articles about the difficulties in development of the hydro-engineering complex are analyzed. At this time studies of representatives of natural and technical sciences start to be published. They are devoted mainly to problems related to the rise of the water level in Cheboksary reservoir to the design mark. The analysis of publications on the ecological state of the flooding zone and hydrogeological survey of the hydro-engineering complex is also presented. The study makes it possible to state that the historical aspect of Cheboksary HPP evolvement and development in historiography has been studied extremely insufficiently. Most sources are marked by a departmental focus, journalistic character and a weak documentary base. The results of the review showed that there are no complex studies on the history of implementing the hydroelectric power plant construction in domestic historiography. The materials of the article can be used for further research of this topic, as well as when writing regional natural history works.

Abstract This work analyzes the performance of stakeholders and advocacy coalitions in processes of gradual institutional change based on the case study of the Belo Monte hydroelectric power plant. The methodology adopts content analysis, using shorthand notes of hearings held in the National Congress, and other publicly available documents. In-depth semi-structured interviews were also conducted, collecting data from individuals involved in the history of the power plant. The study allowed to characterize stakeholders pro or against the enterprise, observing their degree of influence and the role played. In addition, the work used the Advocacy Coalition Framework to verify how stakeholders formed three advocacy coalitions and exerted the strategies of institutional change ‘displacement,’ ‘conversion,’ and ‘layering’ following the gradual and transformative institutional change model. Empirical evidence indicates that the composition of coalition members may determine the type of institutional change and that institutional changes can also result from learning among coalitions, as the incorporation of socio-environmental considerations that have altered the original design of the hydroelectric power plant.

Grounding system analysis and design considerations for large hydroelectric power plant are analyzed and discussed in this paper. The main work that has been carried out includes: constructing adequate soil structures and analyzing the effects of the finite heterogeneous soil structure, the modeled river length and the water reservoir levels; conducting accurate fault current distribution calculations and studying the influence of circulating current on the touch and step voltages. The paper discusses the design of the grounding system and its safety performance while considering the impact of the circulating current and inductive coupling from cables and long parallel conductors inside the plant. Two practical examples have been provided in this paper. Furthermore, the paper demonstrates the effectiveness of using heterogeneous finite soil volumes to analyze large hydroelectric power stations and confirms that accurate grounding software packages are required to account for large circulating currents within the ground conductors and strong inductive coupling that exists between metallic elements within the substation. The results and discussions presented here can be used as a reference for engineers to analyze extensive grounding systems and to design appropriate grounding systems for large hydroelectric power plant.

This study aims to determine how the history of the Lamajan Hydroelectric Power in 1925, both in terms of the geographical, demographic conditions of Pangalengan and also the components that still exist in Lamajan. Lamajan is a Dutch hydroelectric power plant (PLTA) which was built in 1924 in Pangalengan, Bandung and has been operating since 1925. Lamajan has three generator units, the engine used by Lamajan supplied from the Dutch factories Heemaf and Smit Slikkerveer, initiated by V.H Willem Smith & Co. and R.W.H. Hofstede Crull. The method used in this study is a qualitative method, namely by collecting data through literature and documentation. This method is carried out through four stages namely, heuristics, criticism, interpretation, and historiography. The results of this study show this hydroelectric power plant was built during the Dutch colonial era in 1920-1924 and operated in 1925. This power plant was initially built by a Dutch engineer named Willem Beyerinc K.  for the electricity needs of sugar factories but over time was used to illuminate the area of Bandung and its surroundings, this power plant utilizes the flow of water from the Cisarua and Cisangkuy rivers.

Abstract Cypripedium calceolus is considered an endangered species in the territory of Poland. Population of this rare species, situated at Lake Kwiecko (Western Pomerania), was regularly monitored in the years 1986-2013. The studied population has been under the permanent influence of the nearby hydroelectric power plant for almost 45 years. The field observations showed that the power plant had no negative impact on the condition of Cypripedium calceolus population. An indication of its good condition was, among others, an increase in the size - from 150 to 350 specimens within the study period.
