Description
Summary:There have been presented results of a comparative analysis of features of hydropower development in the world and in Ukraine. The analysis was carried out on a basis of data concerning cost-efficient hydropower potential in different countries of the world, installed capacity of hydrogeneration facilities, generation of electricity by them, reservoirs surface area and hydrostatic pressure of hydropower plants (HPPs). As analogues of domestic HPPs for more detailed comparison some HPPs of France, Austria and Finland were considered. There were offered indicators that enable to estimate socio-economic attractiveness of HPPs and their impact on the environment. The results show a difference between the indicators of Ukrainian HPPs and foreign HPPs’ ones, and this difference is not in favour of domestic objects.
