Abstract:International studies have focused on the hydrological impacts on an hourly or sub-daily scale that hydroelectric plants can cause through hydropeaking operations. However, this topic is still underexplored in Brazil, despite its large number of hydroelectric plants. Thus, to bring it to the Brazilian context, this study initially presents a literature review to characterize hydropeaking, its impacts and proposed mitigating measures, and research conducted in Brazil. Next, it was demonstrated that hydropeaking… Show more
