Uglich hydroelectric station
The Uglich hydroelectric station is a small hydroelectric station of a river-bed type located on the Volga River in the city of Uglich in the Yaroslavl Region. It is included in the Volga-Kama cascade of hydropower stations, being its second stage (the first is the Ivankovo hydroelectric station in the city of Dubna, Moscow region). Together with the Rybinsk hydroelectric station (Yaroslavl region, Rybinsk).
The Uglich hydroelectric complex includes a low-pressure channel earthen dam (length 314 meters, height 27 meters), a seven-span concrete spillway dam (total length 179 meters, each span 19.8 meters), a hydroelectric building with two hydraulic units, an open switchgear 220 kV.
The dam of the Uglich hydroelectric station forms the Uglich reservoir, which provides the water level necessary for navigation in the Volga. Construction began in 1938. Because of World War II, the construction of hydropower plants was interrupted and the station was fully commissioned in 1955.
The capacity of the Uglich hydroelectric station is 120 MW (with a design head of 113 meters), the average annual output is 240 million kWh. The dam is designed to skip 11,600 cubic meters. m of water per day. Along the dam of Uglich hydroelectric station passes the road and pedestrian road. In 2007, a hydropower training center was opened on the territory of the Uglich hydropower plant, on the basis of which in 2010 the Uglich hydropower museum was opened.
