Learn the nuts and bolts of hydropower production as compared to other types of generation, including steam (nuclear and fossil), combustion turbine, and wind. Explore how to:

• Optimize the use of generation sources to meet normal system requirements
• Take advantage of the capability of hydro units during abnormal system operations (including black start and under- and over-frequency capabilities)
• Adjust for changes to operating patterns brought about by the integration of non-traditional power sources
