Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "For almost a decade now, the 13 billion dollar Muskrat Falls hydroelectric project has been a central defining problem in the public life of Newfoundland and Labrador. As the essays collected in Muskrat Falls: How a Mega-Dam Became a Predatory Formation show, the dam's promise of clean hydro-power has been accompanied by an interconnected assemblage of crises linking together the threat of methylmercury poisoning with catastrophic flooding and cultural genocide for people living near the dam, and unmanageable public debt, suppression of alternative energy and threats to affordable domestic heat and electricity for everyone else. Its planning and development have involved the weakening of public regulatory bodies and the creation of a more privatized and less publicly accountable crown corporation overseeing the operation. Muskrat Falls: How a Mega-Dam Became a Predatory Formation offers a multi-dimensional analysis of the social, political and environmental problems the hydroelectric project has caused. It covers issues including Indigenous resistance to the dam; the politics and economics of the project; the role of journalism and social media in covering the event; controversy about the geophysical stability of the dam and interviews people living under threat of flooding and methylmercury poisoning downstream. The volume also contains original artwork and photography about the dam and fictional prose about life in the area around the Falls. Muskrat Falls will be of interest to local readers trying to understand how the dam will change life in the province and to anyone trying to understand and respond to any of the very many other similar, crisis-ridden energy and infrastructure projects being built around the world now. The book provides a rich case study of a crisis for scholars and students interested in areas such as energy studies, environmental humanities, Indigenous studies, critical infrastructure studies, and Canadian studies."--
Download or read book Electricity Power Generation written by Digambar M. Tagare and published by John Wiley & Sons. This book was released on 2011-09-23 with total page 406 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book offers an analytical overview of established electric generation processes, along with the present status & improvements for meeting the strains of reconstruction. These old methods are hydro-electric, thermal & nuclear power production. The book covers climatic constraints; their affects and how they are shaping thermal production. The book also covers the main renewable energy sources, wind and PV cells and the hybrids arising out of these. It covers distributed generation which already has a large presence is now being joined by wind & PV energies. It covers their accommodation in the present system. It introduces energy stores for electricity; when they burst upon the scene in full strength are expected to revolutionize electricity production. In all the subjects covered, there are references to power marketing & how it is shaping production. There will also be a reference chapter on how the power market works.

Download or read book Measuring and Apportioning Rents from Hydroelectric Power Developments written by Mitchell P. Rothman and published by World Bank Publications. This book was released on 2000-01-01 with total page 66 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Hydro resources are provided by nature. The exploitation of such resources can generate significant economic rent to the owners. In the past, governments have usually claimed ownership of hydroelectric resources and passed on the rents to their state-owned utilities, which have used them to expand their systems or provide lower tariffs to their consumers. With the restructuring of the electric power sector in many countries, a more explicit consideration of hydroelectric rents is required. Moreover, hydropower resources are often owned by more than one party, or at least require cooperation between parties to develop them. In this context, the measurement and apportionment of hydropower rents between cooperating parties becomes important. This paper addresses some of the issues involved in cooperative development of water resources, especially for hydroelectric generation. It promotes a better understanding of the sources of the benefits and attempts to derive an analytical basis for discussions between cooperating parties. This volume will be of interest to hydropower resource earning countries, hydropower developers, and Bank staff.
Download or read book Hydro Power written by Charles Simeons and published by Elsevier. This book was released on 2014-04-24 with total page 558 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Hydro-Power: The Use of Water as an Alternative Source of Energy deals with the use of water as an alternative source of energy. The principles of the technology involved in the extraction of energy from water for use in some other form are discussed, and some of the projects that are being undertaken in a number of countries are described. Comprised of 12 chapters, this book begins with an overview of global energy consumption and projections for energy demand, along with electricity generation using hydraulic resources and developments in the use of hydroelectric power. The next chapter focuses on the principle of wave power as an energy source, with emphasis on how power can be derived from the slow oscillation of the waves; the economics of wave power; structural design of wave energy converters; and mooring considerations. Subsequent chapters explore national wave power programs in countries such as the United Kingdom, Japan, South Africa, Egypt, Mauritius, Norway, Sweden, and the United States; tidal power and hydrogen; and energy storage and hydroelectric schemes in Europe. The final chapter assesses the environmental impact of hydroelectric power. This monograph will be a useful resource for experts and policymakers in the field of energy as well as those with little knowledge of the potential contribution that water can make to the world's energy needs.
Download or read book White Gold written by Karl Froschauer and published by UBC Press. This book was released on 2011-11-01 with total page 338 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: During the past fifty years, Canadians have seen many of their white-water rivers dammed or diverted to generate electricity primarily for industry and export. The rush to build dams increased utility debts, produced adverse consequences for the environment and local communities, and ultimately resulted in the layoff of 25,000 employees. White Gold looks at what went wrong with hydro development, with the predicted industrial transformation, with the timing and magnitude of projects, and with national and regional initiatives to link these major projects to a trans-Canada power grid.
