Conventional hydropower plants operate at maximum capacities only under the conditions of maximum level of their reservoirs. In case the levels are less than maximum, loss of potential energy of the river flowing down to the reservoir occurs. The value of the potential energy loss is proportional to the difference value between the marks of the flowing river (relevant to the maximum reservoir level) and the current reservoir level.
