The potential energy of 13.5 km^3 of water that is converted to kinetic energy applied at the generator input is:
U = m*g*h
g = 9.8 m/sec^2 acceleration of gravity
h = 690 m head (average elevation of lake – 20 m head loss with turbines at 8 m elevation and 12 m head loss due to penstock)
m = 1.35 * 10^13 kg mass of water in 13.5 km^3 of water
U = 9.15 * 10^16 kg*m^2/sec^2
1 kg*m^2/sec^2 = 2.778*10^-7 kwh
U = 2.5*10^10 kwh
Dividing by 8,760 hours in a year we get a continuous power at the generator input on a year-round basis:
Power at generators input = 2.5* 10^10 kwh /8760 hrs. = 2.85 GW
Pelton generator efficiency = .92
Generators electrical output = 2.6 GW
