Characteristics and Mission of Hangang Hydropower Plant
- Contributes to maximization of economic feasibility of electricity generation through optimized use of water resource.
- As a water resource, supplies water, controls flood, and manages environment of river basin.
- Transfers technology to small businesses, solves technical problems and develops new products via joint research.
- Manages large riverside and workplaces across 5 Dos and 14 Sis/Guns.
- Area of management: 20.6 million ㎡ (50% of the entire lands of the company ？ 5 Dos, 14 Sis/Guns and 38 Eups/Myeons)
- Length of the stream : 187km (39% of the total length of the Hangang River)
Operation of Dams on the Hangang River Water System
- Operation policy: To maximize utilization of water resource and flood control capability.
- Dry season: To secure water for generation and living by maintaining high water level (peak power)
- Right before the flood season: To extend the flood control capability by maintaining low water level
- Flood season: To control flood based on the restricted water level of each dam (base load)
Flood season: The potential flood damage period (Jun. 21 ~ Sep. 20)
- Cooperation with relevant agencies in relation with management of water resources
- Cooperation for operation of water system and control of flood <Han River Flood Control Office of Ministry of Land, Infrastructure and Transport>
- 3 staffs dispatched during the flood period <Central Disaster and Safety Countermeasures Headquarters>
Operation of Dams with Power And Reservoir Operating System (PAROS)
Facility
- Hydropower Control Center: 1 unit of PAROS
- Power plant: Distributed Control System (DCS), Remote Terminal Unit (RTU) and remote supervision system
Function
- Link with the data of EMS, Han River Flood Control Office, Korea Water Resources Corporation, Korea Institute of Civil Engineering and Building Technology.
- Acquire/process the floodgate data and maintain the record automatically.
Floodgate data, such as water level, discharge flow, water consumption, etc. / generation data, such as gross generation, voltage, current, etc. / meteorological data, such as amount of rainfall
