In the Volgograd region approved a new mode of operation of the Volga HPP
The Federal Agency for Water Resources has adjusted the mode of operation of reservoirs of the Volga-Kama cascade, including the Volga hydroelectric power station. The new parameters will operate from November 11 to December 10 this year. The relevant information was published on November 9 on the official website of the Ministry.
According to the updated data, the average daily discharge costs at the Volga HPP will remain in the range of 6-6.5 thousand cubic meters per second. At the same time, a strict lower threshold is set: the minimum average daily expenses should not fall below 6000 cubic meters per second.
The water level in the upper bief is planned to keep within 14.5-15.2 meters. At the same time, the department separately stipulates that these marks are indicated without taking into account overhead wind phenomena - that is, with sharp wind gusts, the level may temporarily deviate from the planned values.
