By: Natalia Marie Jordana Benny Villapaz Maurice Baguio Shaira Monsalud HYDROELECTRIC POWER Hydropower By: Natalia Marie Jordana Benny Villapaz Maurice Baguio Shaira Monsalud HYDROELECTRIC POWER • From the word “Hydro” meaning water, we can tell that hydropower is electricity generated using the energy of moving water. • The first hydroelectric power plant was built at Niagara falls in 1879. • Hydroelectric power provides almost 1/5 of the world’s electricity. • One of the world's largest hydro plants is at Three Gorges on China's Yangtze River. HYDROELECTRIC POWER • Hydropower generates about 24 percent of the world's and 12 percent of the United States' electricity. • Hydroelectric power plants generally range in size from several hundred kilowatts to several hundred megawatts , but a few enormous plants have capacities near 10,000 megawatts in order to supply electricity to millions of people. HYDROELECTRIC POWER • Hydropower is the most energy efficient power generator. Currently,hydropower is capable of converting 90% of the available energy into electricity. This can be compared to the most efficient fossil fuel plants, which are only 60% efficient. HYDROELECTRIC POWER • Hydropower functions by converting the energy in flowing water into electricity. The volume of water flow and the height (called the head) from the turbines in the power plant to the water surface created by the dam determines the quantity of electricity generated. • Kinetic Energy-Mechanical Energy-Electrical Energy A typical hydro plant is a system with three parts: a powerhouse where the electricity is produced; a dam that can be opened or closed to control water flow; and a reservoir where water can be stored. The water behind the dam flows through an intake and pushes against blades in a turbine, causing them to turn. The turbine spins a generator to produce electricity. The amount of electricity that can be generated depends on how far the water drops and how much water moves through the system. The electricity can be transported over long- distance power lines to homes, factories, and businesses. HYDROELECTRIC POWER • The amount of electricity a hydropower plant produces depends on two factors: 1)How far the water falls (distance) 2)Amount of the water falling (quantity) • Hydropower is the • Damming rivers may cheapest way to destroy or disrupt generate electricity wildlife and other today.

    RELENTLESS 2015 ANNUAL REPORT COVER STORY RELENTLESS The National Power Corporation in 2015 continues to rise above challenges as it provides light to the farthest and smallest islands in the country. Amidst the challenges that come with operating 291 Small Power Utilities Group (SPUG) plants in missionary areas and in managing the 981 MW Agus-Pulangi Hydroelectric Power Plants, it has emerged as a relentless warrior of missionary electrification and power plant management. NPC manifested this unwavering determination through its all-time high 2015 net income of P4.903 billion (or P2.9 billion excluding the National Government subsidy) and 98% collection efficiency in Luzon, Visayas and Eastern Mindanao. 2015 is also the period where the corporation had been working hard for its ISO Certification for Quality Management System. 18 NATIONAL POWER The corporation has likewise remained attentive in assuring BOARD REVIEW the safety of communities living downstream its dams and AND COMMENT ON the welfare of its stakeholders in its watershed areas through THE ADEQUACY OF granting of alternative livelihoods.

  • Appendix a Water Pollution in the Philippines: Case Studies
    Foreword CLIMATE CHANGE is undoubtedly the biggest challenge the Philippines faces today, and the vulnerability of our water resources to this phenomenon is a reality that can no longer be ignored. But while water scarcity is perhaps one of the most alarming projected effects of climate change on water resources, two recent typhoons in the Philippines— Ketsana and Parma—have driven home the message that over-abundance can be equally devastating. Both typhoons, along with several others in the past few years, have shown how the country is sorely ill-prepared to handle the impacts brought on by a warming world. Indeed, climate change and the ensuing extreme weather events which have brought too little—or too much—water, have caused periods of water crisis that have destroyed thousands of lives and billions of pesos worth of property and agricultural crops. At the same time, water resources in the country are already confronted with many persistent problems: widespread pollution, over-extraction, and the degradation of watersheds. The present situation, set against the backdrop of climate change, is far from promising. While climate change will affect all sectors, it is its effects on freshwater—society’s, and the Earth’s, life support system—which will be most seriously felt. Water insecurity cuts across all other sectors and will negatively affect agriculture, health, and the economy. But the country’s water systems are still far from being climate-proofed, and current climate change adaptation plans lack the necessary emphasis on addressing impacts on water. This report therefore puts forward the case for the improved management of water resources as a key climate change adaptation strategy.

  • 08 Incursion of Technology the Case of the Kaliwa Kanan Dam in Tanay, Rizal
    • INCURSION OF TECHNOLOGY: THE CASE OF THE KALIWA·KANAN DAMIN TANAY, RIZAL ~CTF Research Staff "/ The worldwide reorganization of industrial production brought about by changed conditions for capital expansion 1 on the one hand, and the rise of authoritarian states in the Third World on the other - serve as the context against which the nature and extent of the impact of technology in the Philippines could be better understood. It is only in understanding such a context that "development" and ''underdevelopment'' could be seen as related facets of a single process rather than separate phenomena. In the mid-fifties, a new scientific and technological revolution swept • the industrialized countries bringing forth a new basis in the international division of labor. 2 The innovations that emerged out of sophisticated high technology brought with them new conditions for the expansion of capital. 3 Technological advancement in transport, communications, data trans­ mission and processing rendered production control less dependent on the geographic distance of industrial locations. It became "possible to have producion units in many different locations and yet control the whole network with a global management policy from the central headquarters.Y'' Hence in the mid-sixties, a reorganization of industrial production on an international scale ensued in the form of a massive relocation of world .' market-oriented industries for the industrialized capitalist countries to the Third World. This was the beginning of a re-devision of labor on the basis of which a small number of industrialized countries and a much greater number of under-developed countries (integrated into the world economy essentially as suppliers of raw materials and occasionally of cheap labor) stood ranged against each other:'s 'The new order of the international economy has made it possible for the Third World to become production sites of light, labor-intensive industries which utilize locally available cheap manpower to produce low-cost manufactured products of luxury food for export.
