2014818 · Underground hydropower plant in Eastern Himalayas, India gets a boost. Guess who will connect the 96MW plant. According to a release, the Dikchu power plant will be built completely underground in Sikkim, a small Indian state in the Eastern Himalayas. The 96 megawatt (MW) run-of-river Dikchu hydroelectric power plant is located on the
202058 · Underground pumped-storage hydropower (UPSH) is a promising technology to manage the electricity production in flat regions.
2017315 · The problem is formulated as shown in Fig. 1.A hypothetical UPSH plant whose underground reservoir is an open pit mine is considered. Of course, actual properties of open pit mines are more complex, but the goal of the paper is, at this stage, to assess the general relevance of groundwater exchanges in terms of efficiency.
Task WP 1.1 will to a great extent be organized through PhD-projects. Two of the three PhD-projects directly linked to HydroCen are related to engineering geology. Focusing on: 1) Effects of swelling rock and swelling clay gouge on stability and support requirement. 2) Impact of peaking operation in unlined/shotcrete lined tunnels, respectively.
