| Popis: | Of the many types of energy being produced by nature, mainly one -- water energy -- has gained industrial significance in modern power-generating facilities. Indeed, for more than 50 years more than one quarter of the world's total electric energy needs has been provided by hydroelectric stations. In fact, in many countries hydro plants account for 10 to 15 percent of the total generating apparatus of power stations. Therefore, an economic analysis of renewability, as presented in this paper, can be considered for now only with respect to the hydroelectric power industry, although the conclusions reached from such analysis can to one degree or another be referred to other types of energy production. |
