BUILDING OF SMALL HYDRO POWER PLANTS ON NATURE PROTECTED AREAS

V diplomski nalogi so predstavljene možnosti postavitve male hidroelektrarne na odseku reke Drave od Melja do Ptuja. To območje je zaščiteno, zato zanj veljajo posebna naravovarstvena določila, ki so v nalogi tudi predstavljena. Analizirali smo pretoke reke in opredelili naravovarstvena območja, ki so primerna za gradnjo. S pomočjo kartografije smo raziskali rečno korito. Zanimali so nas padci, širina in dno rečnega korita, ki so primerni za postavitev hidroelektrarne. Na podlagi vseh zakonskih omejitev in dobljenih podatkov smo predstavili nekaj obstoječih hidroelektrarn, ki so primerne za obravnavani odsek reke Drave. Opredelili smo karakteristične lastnosti teh hidroelektrarn in za analizirane podatke opravili tudi izračune moči in stroškov hidroelektrarn s pomočjo programa RET Screen.Dissertation presents various possibilities of building small hydro power plants on the river Drava in section between Melje and Ptuj. The nature in this area is protected by special environmental laws which are also described in the thesis. We analysed overflow of the river and defined nature conservation areas suitable for construction. Based on cartography we analysed the river bed. We were interested in characteristics of declines, width and floor of the river bed suitable for the built. Based on the law restrictions and acquired data we presented some existing hydro power plants suitable in considered section of the river. We defined characteristics of these hydro power plants and made calculations of their power and expanses with RET Screen program
