Nevertheless, over the years the conflict has re-appeared, dragging both the riparian states into confrontation.

Cumulative Environmental Impact Of Cascade Hydropower Dams Construction On The Water-River
Abstract Variation of environmental indices in cascade dams could be intensified in comparison with single dams. In cascade dams the intensification of long term negative impacts are more important than the impacts in single case dam. In addition, these impacts are more permanent and intense, so the precise study of cascade dams is indispensable. The main goal in this research is to study ...

Bhutan and Nepal together have an economically feasible potential of 60,000 MW of hydroelectric power generation capacity but are too weak financially to bear the risks associated with the development of their hydro resources alone. India is the only potential market for ...

Evaluation of melioration area damage on the river Danube caused by the hydroelectric power plant ‘Djerdap 1’ backwater
Construction of the hydroelectric power plant (HPP) ‘Djerdap 1’ formed a backwater effect on the Danube and its tributaries, which had an inevitable influence on groundwater level, causing it to rise and thus creating additional threats to all melioration areas on more than 300 km of the Danube riversides, as well as on the riversides of its tributaries: the Sava (100 km) and the ...
