Book Feasibility Assessment of Low head Hydroelectric Development at the Peninsular Paper Company Dam in Ypsilanti Michigan Final Report

Download or read book Feasibility Assessment of Low head Hydroelectric Development at the Peninsular Paper Company Dam in Ypsilanti Michigan Final Report written by and published by . This book was released on 1979 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The results of a study into the feasibility of developing a small, low-head dam site for hydroelectric generation in southeastern Michigan are presented. Average hydraulic head at the site is 13.0 ft, mean stream flow is 498 cfs. Economic, environmental and institutional factors were considered. Seven specific hypothetical designs were examined in detail, including vertical, bulb, cross-flow and tubular turbine designs. It was determined that the production capacity of the facility had an important influence on the cost-effectiveness of the project. A detailed benefit/cost analysis was conducted to identify the optimum facility size in terms of incremental costs and benefits. From an economic standpoint, it was found that the most cost-effective design for developing the site, although profitable, would not be financially attractive to the owner compared to other investment opportunities with which the company is faced. The projected after-tax return on investment for the project, based on current costs, was projected to be from 2 to 6%, depending upon the depreciation basis used. The project would, however, have a favorable effect on the corporation's working capital. The environmental issues associated with the development of the site would be relatively minor. The most important consequence would be enhanced public safety due to structural repairs to the dam and the availability of a small, independent source of electric generation that could be called on in times of power outages or natural disaster.

Book Pre Feasibility Study of Small Hydropower Projects

Download or read book Pre Feasibility Study of Small Hydropower Projects written by Vishnu Prasad Pandey and published by LAP Lambert Academic Publishing. This book was released on 2012-08 with total page 128 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This report provides a general overview of rationale behind development of small hydropower in Nepal, potentials of hydropower development, power markets, enabling environments (e.g., legal provisions, etc), current situation of hydropower sector and its scope for further development. With a case study of Upper Dordi Hydropower Project (UDHP), this report also highlights the methodology of performing pre-feasibility study of a small hydropower projects. In particular, it highlights on the techniques for hydro-meteorological analysis, alignment selection, alternative schemes development and selection of the preferred one, design consideration of all the structures relevant to the project, environmental impact assessment, project planning and scheduling, and economic analysis.

Book Case Study Analysis of the Legal and Institutional Obstacles and Incentives to the Development of the Hydroelectric Power of the Boardman River at Traverse City Michigan

Download or read book Case Study Analysis of the Legal and Institutional Obstacles and Incentives to the Development of the Hydroelectric Power of the Boardman River at Traverse City Michigan written by and published by . This book was released on 1980 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An analytic description of one decision-making process concerning whether or not to develop the hydroelectric potential of the Boardman River is presented. The focus of the analysis is on the factor that the developers considered, or should consider in making a responsible commitment to small-scale hydroelectric development. Development of the Boardman River would occur at the five dam sites. Two existing dams, owned by the county, previously generated hydroelectricity, as did a third before being washed out. One dam has never been utilized. It is owned by the city which also owns the washed-out area. The study concludes that hydroelectric power is feasible at each. Grand Traverse County and Traverse City would engage in a joint venture in developing the resource. Chapter I presents a detailed description of the developers, the river resource, and the contemplated development. Chapter II is an analysis of the factors affecting the decision making process. Chapter III summarizes the impact of the more significant barriers and incentives and presents recommendations that, if implemented, will favorably affect decisions to develop small-scale hydroelectric generation capability.
