Worldwide, almost 50,000 dams over 15 m height have been built during the last six decades with an aggregated storage capacity of 6,000 km3. The fact that large dams, by increasing irrigation and hydroelectricity production, can sustain development and red ...
Hydropower is the world’s most important renewable electricity source. More than 40% of European hydroelectric energy is produced in Alpine countries. High-head storage hydropower plants (HPP) contribute significantly to peak energy production as well as e ...

The electricity sector in Switzerland is undergoing important changes following the liberalisation process and the facilitation of renewable energy technologies. Furthermore, the phasing out of nuclear power will increase the demand for new domestic electr ...
When speaking of energy production and consumption in the context of climate change, the interest usually lies in mitigation policies and measures, i.e. the energy system is seen as an emitter of greenhouse gases. This paper takes a different approach and ...
Hydropeaking is a major issue for storage hydropower plants. Hydropeaking can affect negatively the aquatic environment along river streams. For several hydropower plants studies which analyse measures to reduce the surge effect are currently under prepara ...
Large dams can have major ecological and biogeochemical impacts on downstream ecosystems such as wetlands and riparian habitats. We examined sediment removal and carbon (C), nitrogen (N), and phosphorus (P) cycling in Itezhi-Tezhi Reservoir (ITT; area = 36 ...
The International Commission on Large Dams' 79th Annual Meeting, to be held May 29-June 3 in Lucerne, Switzerland, brings together dam experts from throughout the world to exchange knowledge and experiences. Such information exchange is vital to ensure eff ...
Anumber of major hydropower schemes have been developed in the lambezi river basin to ensure astable energy output. Although this main objective is well met, there is considerable scope to optimize operation of the plants. This paper presents the results o ...
In the framework of the African DAms ProjecT (ADAPT), an integrated water resource management study in the Zambezi Basin is currently under development. In view of the sparse gauging network for rainfall monitoring, the observations from spaceborne instrum ...
