Société Hydrotechnique de France welcomes participants to the conference Enhancing existing Hydropower plant facilities La centrale de Calypso dans les Alpes françaises, 1902 Enhancing Hydropower plants Société Hydrotechnique de France French Hydro Society Born in 1912 following the 1902 congress of « la houille blanche » (il carbone bianco), initially focussed on hydropower development in the Alps The Calypso plant in the french Alps, 1902 Société Hydrotechnique de France French Hydro Society The development of turbines for high head chutes was one of the major technical problems at that time The Calypso plant in the french Alps, 1902 Société Hydrotechnique de France www.shf-hydro.org SHF is now the reference french-speaking learning society in the field of hydropower, water sciences applied to energy, fluvial and maritime hydraulic structures, hydrotechnologies, and water management (flood and drought). SHF is acting at European level. Our Journal la houille blanche is an exchange tool between industrial and academic scientists and engineers on Water sciences, Fluid Mechanics and Hydrology Doc. EDF La centrale de Calypso dans les Alpes françaises, 1902 Enhancing Hydropower plants SHF is covering many fields related to water sciences and fluid dynamics Glaciology and nivology : the upstream boundary condition of water management La retenue de la Grande Dixence, photo PLV Hydrology : - Measurements and modelling - Resource forecasting - Risks and extreme flooding events - Prospective on water resources La crue de la Seine en 1910 Underground flows Urban hydraulics Un réservoir des eaux de ruissellement en Jordanie, photo PLV 5 Fluid Mechanics and hydro-technologies : - Microfluidics (chemical and health industry) - Multiphase flows (bubble flows in many processes) - Hydrodynamics - Hydraulic machineries and cavitation under the pressure of more flexible operation Univ de Padoue et ENSAM Lille Fluvial & maritime hydraulics : -Coupling data-simulation… -Fluid mechanics and sediment transport -Scour, erosion and river morphodynamics (lateral erosions and meandering) Erosion latérale sur le Couesnon, photo PLV 6 Simulation and Hydroinformatics : multi-domains, multiphysics and coupling, data base and networks, uncertainties… Simhydro 2010, 2012, 2014 Simulation de cournats de marée, doc EDF Social sciences related to water : - History - Sociology - Economy - Training - Knowledge dissemination, relation with skateholders, and the public Coastal and fluvial structures : multiple constraints (economy, environment…) with european competition 7 Hydropower : the main renewable source of electricity, and the cheapest, under - safety, - environmental & - economical constraints and european competition 2010 : conference on Hydropower and Environment 2012 : conference on Pumped Storage Plants 2014 : conference on Enhancing Existing Hydropower plants Modele réduit évac de crue, doc EDF Passe à poissons « naturelle », doc CNR France is the second European country with respect to hydropower generation 8 capacity There are need and capacities for hydropower development • New projects • Enhancing and repowering existing plants • Adding Pumped storage capacities to existing scheme Delivering renewable energy Providing services to the grid and power system (safety, flexibility, in the context of strong development of intermittent sources) Enhancing Hydropower plants The purposes of this conference are to • • • • • Share experience on enhancing projets, including - Scientific, Technical and technological issues - Environmental constraints - Economical sides - Motivations for enhancing projects • Both global vision of ongoing and future projects and specific technological sides (machines) will be addressed Enhancing Hydropower plants Conferences organized this year by SHF •Glaciology, nivology (March 20-21, Grenoble) •Management of urban drainage systems (March 1920, Bordeaux) •Enhancing existing hydropower plant facilities (April 9-10, Grenoble ) •SIMHYDRO 2014 & Applied Modelling of large hydraulic transients (floods, runup…) (June 11-12-13, Nice) •Small scale Morphodynamics, (October 6-7, Nantes) •4th International conference on microfluidics (Cork) Enhancing Hydropower plants Thank you and enjoy the conference Read and support our Journal La Houille Blanche Visit SHF website: www.shf-hydro.org Enhancing Hydropower plants
