Hydro Review: TVA's flood mitigation saves millions of dollars

Plus, drought hampers U.S. generation by double-digit percentages

State-of-the-art Atlas Polar HYDRORAKE Trash Rake systems keep intakes clean of debris and assure consistent, uninterrupted water flow – even in the most extreme weather conditions.
Scalable and flexible, they sequence to almost any flow or condition on each intake and are customizable to virtually any gauge or bar rack. The trusted #1 debris removal system for over 40 years, HYDRORAKE’s automated 24/7 operation is proven highly efficient, reliable, safer and cost-effective across North America.

"Significant and catastrophic" flood damage to communities occurred throughout northeast Tennessee and western North Carolina, TVA said.
"Extreme and exceptional" drought conditions have been affecting different parts of the United States, particularly the Pacific Northwest, which is home to the majority of U.S. hydropower capacity.

Bentley commissioned a global survey of industry experts to understand condition monitoring trends and practices for dams. They learned that collecting data for monitoring dam conditions is now mostly automated. That shift provides some unexpected benefits, with dam owners reporting that automation enables them to penetrate new markets and execute more projects—often with leaner teams. Learn more about the state of the industry and what leaders are doing to gain a competitive advantage.

The Salto de Chira power plant will have an installed power capacity of 200 MW and an energy storage capacity of 3.5 GWh.
Last October, USACE said it was preparing for what it called “the largest dam safety modification project in USACE history” at Garrison Dam.
The projects funded by these grants are expected to be completed within the next two years, with some improvements already underway.
Under the current project, ANDRITZ will carry out major uprating works on the turbines and will supply new generators as well as rehabilitation of the hydromechanical equipment related to the generating units.
The 2024 summit in Azerbaijan comes amid fresh reports showing that global warming levels are accelerating.
