The construction of a hydropower plant in Siberia and the Far East violates the environmental rights of the local population. Test, generalization of material on the section "eastern macro-region"

In the Amur Region, on the Bureya River, the Nizhne-Bureya Hydroelectric Power Station is currently being built - the largest hydroelectric power station in Russia, the construction of which was already started in the post-Soviet era.
It's been 3 years since I came here. Let's see what has changed since then and how the construction of this important facility is being carried out, the electricity of which will go to the needs of a number of existing and prospective consumers - for example, such as the Vostochny cosmodrome, the Power of Siberia gas pipeline and various mining industries in the Far East.

1. Nizhne-Bureiskaya HPP (lower layout) is part of the Bureysky hydropower complex. The design of the station began in the 1980s, but work soon stopped due to lack of funding.
After the construction of the Bureiskaya hydroelectric power station (middle model) upstream of the Bureya, they returned to the issue of building the Nizhne-Bureyskaya station, and on August 27, 2010, construction was launched

2. The Nizhne-Bureiskaya HPP is the counter-regulator of the Bureiskaya HPP. That is, its task (except for energy generation) is to smooth out fluctuations in the level of the river after the Bureyskaya hydroelectric power station. The fact is that during the day and year the needs for electricity are different. In the morning, when the load in the power system increases sharply, the station gains power, and the amount of water discharged down through the hydroelectric units increases. At the same time, at night, with a decrease in loads in the power system, the load on the station and water discharges decrease.

When the amount of discharged water changes, significant fluctuations in the levels in the river occur. To prevent them, a counter-regulating hydroelectric power station is being built with a relatively small reservoir, in which uneven discharges are leveled out.

3. In addition, the Nizhne-Bureiskaya HPP will also play a large flood control role, smoothing out the peaks of discharges from the Bureisky reservoir. Thanks to the Nizhne-Bureya reservoir, flooding of settlements is prevented

4. The design capacity of the Nizhne-Bureiskaya HPP is 320 MW, the average annual output is 1.65 billion kWh. The station consists of an earth dam 400 meters long and a maximum height of 42 meters, two concrete dams and a power plant building. A modern closed-type switchgear (KRUE) with a voltage of 220 kV is being built to supply the power of the station to the power system.

5. The HPP building, 97 meters long, is located on the right bank of the river. Next to it, 4 power transformers are being built, from which electricity will be transmitted to the complete switchgear (KRUE 220 kV)

6. General view of the station from the observation deck

In September 2014, this place looked like this:

7. The Nizhne-Bureya reservoir, which is being filled now (upper pool). Filling began in March 2017, and in April 2016 the river was blocked

3 years ago it looked like this:

8. The Bureya River, on which the station stands, is a tributary of the Amur. Its mouth is about 60 km from here.

9. Let's go to the construction site. The building of the hydroelectric power station, cranes and power transformers, which were mentioned above

10. Executive Director of Nizhne-Bureyskaya HPP JSC Alexander Sergeevich Garkin

11. In the engine room there are 4 hydraulic units of 80 MW each. They were manufactured by Power Machines, the leading Russian manufacturer of power equipment, with some design changes following the results of the 2013 flood.
An early project involved the placement of three hydroelectric units, but later the decision was changed in favor of four, but with a lower capacity.

The first and second hydraulic units in May 2017 successfully passed comprehensive testing. For 72 hours they carried a maximum load of 40 MW. This was the final stage of testing before commissioning.

12. During the tests, the main equipment (generators and block transformers), auxiliary equipment (protection and automation), as well as power output equipment (KRUE 220 kV) worked without any accidents or failures. This indicates the high quality of installation and work done.

14. ...and the fourth units of the station, the installation of which is now being completed. It is planned that all hydroelectric units of the Nizhne-Bureyskaya HPP will begin operation in the third quarter of 2017

16. A few more views of the machine room

18. The construction of the station (one of the priorities of the RusHydro investment program) is proceeding at a rapid pace and is now nearing completion.

21. Works inside the station

22. Equipment testing, testing of the most complex electronic systems. And now the engineer does not walk around with a notebook, as before, copying the readings of the instruments - the equipment is working. In normal operation, it is not necessary to be at some equipment

23. Computerized control panel - the think tank of the Nizhne-Bureyskaya HPP

24. Systems completely duplicate each other, which reduces the risk of failures and accidents

26. And this is KRUE-220 (complete switchgear for 220 kV). Such equipment is located not in the open air, but in a special chamber. The use of switchgear makes it possible to greatly reduce the area and volume of the switchgear compared to the same outdoor switchgear - an open switchgear

27. Work outside. At the transformer site

29. The 123-meter spillway concrete dam is designed to discharge water flows that exceed the capacity of the station's turbines. Its height is 48 meters. The dam is equipped with five surface spillways blocked by segment gates.
The maximum throughput through the dam is 13,332 m³/s

30. The spillway is a fantastic sight! Water is capable of generating about 1.5 billion kWh of electricity per year

31. Everything boils and rumbles, you can listen to the sounds of water endlessly

32. View of the dam from the upstream

34. Nizhne-Bureya reservoir. Its length is 90 km, the average width is 1.7 km, the maximum width is 5 km, and the average depth is 13 m.

The resettlement of the population from the flood zone of the reservoir of the Nizhne-Bureyskaya HPP is not currently being carried out - everything was done during the construction of the Bureyskaya HPP.

As for animals and plants, with the support of RusHydro, a set of compensatory measures was carried out, including the creation of the Bureysky nature park, improvement of living conditions for animals and birds, and the transfer of rare plants from the flood zone. Operation “Mazai”, which has no analogues in Russia, was carried out to rescue wild animals from the flood zone. Let's talk about all this separately.

The only facility that is not located in the Svobodnensky district, but is inextricably linked with the cosmodrome, is the new Nizhne-Bureyskaya HPP with a capacity of 320 MW. The Vostochny cosmodrome will become one of the main consumers of the generated energy from this hydroelectric power station.

On August 27, 2010, the construction of the Nizhne-Bureiskaya HPP on the Bureya River in the Amur Region was launched. The station is located downstream of the powerful Bureyskaya HPP and acts as its counter-regulator. Electric power from the Nizhne-Bureyskaya HPP will be supplied to such facilities as the second stage of the Eastern Siberia-Pacific Ocean oil pipeline, the Elga coal deposit, and the Vostochny cosmodrome.

Construction is being carried out in an area that is very familiar to every Far East - very close to the Moscow-Vladivostok stele on the Chita-Khabarovsk highway.
1.

The Nizhne-Bureiskaya HPP does not look like a gigantic structure. It is being built as a counter-regulator of the upper - Bureyskaya hydroelectric power station, therefore it is more modest in size. But she has a big responsibility. If the Amur Region is overtaken by abnormal floods, as was the case in 2013, this hydroelectric power plant will equalize the work of the Bureyskaya HPP.
2.

On April 19, the last 15 meters of the river were blocked at the Nizhne-Bureiskaya HPP: dozens of dump trucks dumped huge concrete blocks into the river. From that moment on, all the water went through the spillways of the hydroelectric power station.
3.

According to the executive director of the station, Alexander Garkin, construction is in full swing. Of the 650,000 cubic meters of concrete, 602,600 have already been laid today, so the HPP will be launched on time.

With the launch of the Nizhne-Bureiskaya HPP, the appearance of the energy-intensive Vostochny cosmodrome will not affect ordinary consumers in any way.
Compromise between environmentalists and builders
7.

Such large-scale constructions do not pass without a trace for nature. Ecologists started talking about this six years ago. The new reservoir of the Nizhne-Bureya hydroelectric power station could flood the unique valley of the Bureya River, where Red Books live and grow. This area was decided to "resettle".
8.

Ecologists, officials and representatives of RusHydro first sat down at the negotiating table two years before the launch of the HPP. The council decided to create the natural park "Bureisky" around the flood zone - the first park of its kind in modern Russia.
9.

Yuri Gafarov was one of those ecologists who built feeders and nests for animals to lure them away from the flood zone, and then replanted the plants during the sultry Amur summer.

"We managed to build new nests for mandarin ducks and Far Eastern storks, erect feeders for wild boars and replant unique ferns growing in the river valley,” says Gafarov. HPS.

"I am engaged in industrial mountaineering. First Zeyskaya, then Bureyskaya, now here is the Nizhne-Bureiskaya hydroelectric power station. I myself am from the Amur Region. In winter, of course, it is cold here, but the food is good, so we do not freeze. We have enough energy. The task has been set, we must carry it out. Dress warmly and let's go. In extreme cases, we make a greenhouse, everything is covered with it from above, and we are already working under it, "says one of the builders of the station Alexei.

Many work so much that they no longer remember their seniority: “I was born and raised here, in the village of Ust-Kivda, 30 km from here, at the mouth of the Bureya. the third HPP: Boguchanskaya, Bureiskaya, and now Nizhne-Bureyskaya. I didn’t even count my seniority, mama mia, only history knows!” - Shouts installer Nikolai Molochenko under the roar of a jackhammer.
19.

Most of the workers are already building a second or even a third hydroelectric power station. Despite the fact that many were born in the Bureya district, they live in RusHydro hostels, which are built in close proximity to the facilities.

Hydraulic installations are represented by hydroelectric power plants (HPP) and pumped storage power plants (PSPP). Their placement largely depends on natural conditions, for example, the nature and regime of the river. In mountainous areas, high-pressure hydroelectric power stations are usually built, while on lowland rivers, installations with a lower pressure, but a large flow of water, operate. Hydraulic construction in plains conditions is more difficult due to the predominance of soft foundations under dams and the need to have large reservoirs to regulate the flow. The construction of hydroelectric power stations on the plains causes flooding of adjacent territories, which causes significant material damage. The construction of hydroelectric power stations requires solving a whole range of problems (land irrigation, development of water transport and fisheries, environmental protection), and the best solution is the cascade principle of construction, when hydroelectric power stations are "strung" on the river. It is advantageous to build hydroelectric power stations on mountain rivers with a large drop and water flow. Russian HPPs are mostly flat, and therefore, low-pressure and inefficient. On the whole, 1/5 of the economically justified potential of hydropower resources has been used in Russia at present.

Hydraulic power plants (HPPs) are in second place in terms of the amount of generated energy (in 2008-18%). . Hydroelectric power plants are a very efficient source of energy, since they use renewable energy sources, they are easy to manage (the number of personnel at HPPs is 15-20 times less than at GRES) and have a high efficiency factor (more than 80%). As a result, the energy produced at HPPs is the cheapest, the cost of energy produced at HPPs is 5-6 times lower than at TPPs. But HPPs also have a number of disadvantages: they require a very large investment of time and money for their construction, they are subject to the seasonality of the river regime, direct dependence on water resources, environmental pollution, and large areas of valuable riverine lands are flooded by reservoirs. Hydropower resources tied to rivers are unevenly distributed throughout the country. The most significant potential hydropower resources are located in the regions of Central and Eastern Siberia, which have a mountainous terrain, many small and medium-sized rivers, as well as such river giants as the Yenisei, Angara, Lena, Amur. In the rest of the country, in terms of hydropower potential, the mountainous republics of the North Caucasus, the western macroslope of the Ural Range and the Kola Peninsula stand out. The arid regions of southern Russia and the plains of Western Siberia have the minimum potential. The hydropower potential in a significant part of the country's territory is not used at all. In the regions of Siberia, only the Angarsk and Yenisei cascades of HPPs make it possible to use part of the potential of the largest rivers. In the rest of Siberia, the use of free energy of water movement has only a point character (Novosibirsk, Ust-Khantai, Zeya, Vilyuiskaya hydroelectric power stations, etc.). On the European territory of the country, the maximum possible amount of electricity is extracted in the lower reaches of the Volga, although the potential for hydropower is not so great here due to the flat terrain. At the same time, the larger in total capacity, but dispersedly distributed potential of the rivers of the Caucasus and the western Urals is used to a lesser extent. It should be emphasized that the energy-deficient economy of Primorye does not have hydroelectric power stations at all, although this region has large hydropower resources. Apparently, this is due to the extreme variability of the river regime in the monsoon climate with regularly passing typhoons, which leads to a significant increase in the cost of construction due to security problems.

Of the total potential size of Russia's hydropower resources, the Far East zone accounts for 53%, the East Siberian region - 26%, and the Central region - 1%. . There are practically no hydropower resources in the Central Black Earth region.

The development of hydro resources is most effective in the eastern regions of the country, which is determined by a combination of high water content of the rivers, the mountainous terrain of the territory, the narrowness of rocky channels, and, consequently, the creation of a large water pressure. As a result, the cost of energy is 5-6 times lower than in the European regions of the country. Hydroelectric power stations in the eastern regions played a primary role in the development of natural resources and the development of productive forces. Based on them, TPKs specializing in energy-intensive industries were created.

Active construction of hydroelectric power stations in Russia began in the 1920s. in the process of implementing the GOELRO plan. Soviet hydroelectric construction was characterized by the construction of cascades of hydroelectric power stations. A cascade of hydroelectric power stations is a group of hydroelectric power stations located along the river. In cascades of hydroelectric power plants, power plants are located in steps along the river, and each of them uses the energy of the water runoff. HPP cascades have been built on the Volga and Kama, on the Irtysh, on the Angara and Yenisei, on the small rivers of Karelia and the Kola Peninsula, on the tributaries of the Amur, on the Vilyui, and on the Svir. On large lowland rivers, hydrosystems have been created, consisting of a dam, a reservoir, and locks. The construction of hydropower facilities allows simultaneously solving several problems: generating electricity, irrigating land, providing water to the economy, improving navigation conditions, and supporting fish farming and fishing.

The main HPP cascades are located in:

  • · East Siberian economic region (Angaro-Yenisei cascade);
  • Volga region (Volga-Kama cascade)

The most powerful in Russia is the Angara-Yenisei HPP cascade (with a capacity of about 22 million kW), consisting of five stations, four of which are the largest in Russia. These are Sayanskaya (6.4 million kW) and Krasnoyarskaya HPPs (6.0 million kW) on the Yenisei, Bratskaya (4.3 million kW) and Ust-Ilimskaya (4.3 million kW) HPPs on the Angara. The Irkutsk hydroelectric power station also operates at the hangar, and the construction of the Boguchanskaya hydroelectric power station continues. (table 4)

Powerful hydroelectric power plants in the European part of the country have been built on flat rivers, in soft soil conditions. The Volga-Kama cascade of HPPs has a large capacity (about 11.5 million kW), which includes 11 power plants. The largest in its composition are the Volzhskaya (2.5 million kW) and Volgogradskaya (2.3 million kW) HPPs.

The Bureyskaya HPP in the Far East, where only the first stage is operating so far, will also have a capacity of more than 2 million kW. Powerful power plants operate on the Ob (Novosibirsk), Don (Tsimlyansk in the Rostov region), Zeya (Zeiskaya in the Amur region).

Pumped-storage stations (PSPPs) are also a type of hydroelectric power station. In the European part of the country, the development of this type of power plants is very promising. PSPPs require the construction of not one, but two reservoirs at different levels. During the peak of energy consumption (during the day) they work like ordinary hydroelectric power plants, and during the recession of consumption (at night), pumped storage power plants extinguish consumption peaks and ensure greater uniformity in the operation of other stations. PSPs are built near large cities where there is the greatest difference between peaks and troughs in energy consumption. They can be built on any river, but they only work in conjunction with stations of other types. In Russia, the Zagorskaya PSP with a capacity of 1.2 million kW has been built (a large PSP is located near the city of Sergiev Posad in the Moscow Region) and the Central PSP (3.6 million kW) is under construction.

The economic potential of the regions of the European part of Russia has been largely used, while in the eastern regions, which have huge hydropower resources, its use is small (with the exception of Eastern Siberia). Hydroconstruction in Siberia and the Far East is difficult.

Currently, the development of hydropower in Russia is focused on the construction of small and medium-sized hydropower plants that do not require significant investment and do not create environmental tension.
