joahüdroelektrijaamad
Joahüdroelektrijaamad, also known as run-of-river hydroelectric power plants, are a type of hydroelectric energy generation facility that harnesses the natural flow of a river to produce electricity. Unlike conventional dams that store large volumes of water in a reservoir, joahüdroelektrijaamad typically divert a portion of the river's flow through a channel or penstock to a powerhouse. The moving water then spins turbines, which in turn drive generators to produce electricity.
These facilities have a relatively small environmental footprint compared to storage-based hydroelectric plants. They generally do
Due to their reliance on consistent river flow, joahüdroelektrijaamad's electricity output can fluctuate with seasonal changes
