Hydraulic energy: map of France of EDF installations




by Christophe » 04/03/09, 12:34

Here is the map of France showing the location, nature and order of magnitude of the power of hydropower installations in France.

Almost nothing in the West or the rivers are however the biggest ... Surely of the problem of defrosting too weak?

In any case the champion remains the Rhine! Ben desires between the upper rhine below and the lower rhine at the top, there is enough uneven! : Cheesy:

But why neglect all the small hydraulics?

From memory, there is more than 2000 MW installed among more than 1800 PCH ...

And I saw anyway that the nuke is now 85% of total production ... it's overwhelming :?

2 000 MW are you sure? It seems huge to me! It's 1 100 kW average ... it's more like the HYDLE ... I think there's an error in your numbers. For micro and hydraulic pico the power should not exceed 10kW ...

Otherwise this map only shows the plants managed by EdF (directly or indirectly via local subsidiaries like on the Rhine).

But finally, you answer yourself to your question: how to put on a single card 1800 installations? : Cheesy:

ps: PCH = Hungarian Communist Party? : Mrgreen: Or else Hydraulic?

nan nan nan ...

2000 MW is the cumulative power of 1800 small hydraulic power plants (PCH).

a majority of them are between 100 kW and 2 MW on average, and small hydropower is considered to be between 5 kW and 5 MW even if there is no official "border".

Ah ok it's not Pico or Micro hydraulic so ... I didn't know that "small" was so "big / big" ...

A small 5MW turbine in the garden I would like, do not you?

this term of small hydraulics has been skilfully distilled by edf to ridicule medium-sized installations, a fortiori small (<200 KW) in front of its sacrosanct dams (those on your menu ...), modestly qualified as "large hydraulic" (large hydraulic, it is less selling : Cheesy: ).

We know very well that the safety of a network prefers more small plants than one big one, and the ecological impacts are considerably reduced with PCH.

There was 70 000 mills in France in 1890.
And now ?

70? : Mrgreen:

Centralization is progress ... the progress of billing everyone yes ...

And as EDF becomes the 1er developer french real estate holiday village whose use is exclusively reserved for its employees ...

This is just an example ...

According to the figures of this article https://www.econologie.com/forums/microhydra ... 10888.html the energy potential of the restart of 30000 mills of France would be ... 30 to 35 nuclear reactors !!

We understand better why EDF with the complicity of the policies, the Grenelle and some ecolo (FNE) block this re-deployment ... : Evil:

It will not surprise me.
Perhaps a new post to create, pcq attack wind turbines pcq their power is not stable, but in general, the flow of rivers is much more stable than the wind.
There is a lot of pcq : Cheesy:

Back to "hydraulic, wind, geothermal, marine energy, biogas ..."
