FIELD: power generation.
SUBSTANCE: invention relates to power plants and particularly to an apparatus for improved hydropower generation at existing impoundments. An apparatus for generating power through water impoundment comprises a frame 60, configured for transportation and installed in or connected to the water impoundment, a group of power generating cells placed in the frame 60 in multiple predetermined positions. The cells comprise selectively detachable, interlocked, stacked modules, vertically mounted in the frame and including a generator module 62 and a turbine module 68. The modules are interchangeable at different positions in the frame 60 without interrupting power generation in other cells. The cells are installed to obtain energy resulting from water impoundment. The cells are configured to convert the said energy by passing water through a turbine and rotating the turbine in each cell.
EFFECT: invention is aimed at designing a power generating apparatus with a variable configuration.
