Experience and Possibilities of Using Energy Resources of Water Reservoirs for a Complex Purpose Located in an Arid Zone. Part II

Abstract

This paper shows the dependence of the energy indicators of advanced HPSs at reservoirs built for a complex purpose that are located in an arid zone on the genesis of feeding rivers, hydrological regimes, and water use. It reveals the possibility of increasing the reliability of the electric power supply of the reservoirs and prospective hydroelectric power stations (HPSs) in them by wind power plants (WPPs) using the wind energy in the zone of the reservoirs.
