In context: how this plant compares

At 4 MW, Novotroitskaya HPP of the Cascade of the Kuban HPPs is below the median hydro plant in Russia (72 MW). Hydropower converts the energy of falling or flowing water into electricity; output depends on rainfall and reservoir level, and large dams also provide grid balancing and storage.

Capacity comparison computed from the WRI Global Power Plant Database; fuel-type context is general engineering background.
