The Someșul Cald ( Hungarian: ''Meleg-Szamos''; literally "Warm Someș") is the left headwater of the river Someșul Mic in Romania. It joins the Someșul Rece in Lake Gilău, a reservoir near Gilău. The reservoirs Mărișelu, Tarnița and Someșul Cald are located on this river. Construction of the Tarnița – Lăpuștești Hydroelectric Power Station on the river began on June 15, 2008.

Headwater
The headwaters of a river or stream is the farthest place in that river or stream from its estuary or downstream confluence with another river, as measured along the course of the river. It is also known as a river's source. Definition The United States Geological Survey (USGS) states that a river's "length may be considered to be the distance from the mouth to the most distant headwater source (irrespective of stream name), or from the mouth to the headwaters of the stream commonly known as the source stream". As an example of the second definition above, the USGS at times considers the Missouri River as a tributary of the Mississippi River. But it also follows the first definition above (along with virtually all other geographic authorities and publications) in using the combined Missouri—lower Mississippi length figure in lists of lengths of rivers around the world. Most rivers have numerous tributaries and change names often; it is customary to regard the longest t ...

Tarnița – Lăpuștești Hydroelectric Power Station
The Tarnița–Lăpuștești Hydropower Plant is a proposed hydroelectric pumped-storage project on the Someșul Cald River in Cluj County, Romania. If built it would be the largest hydro-electric load balancing system in Romania. During the night, when the demand is low and electricity is cheap because of powerplants which generate electricity continuously, such as the Cernavodă nuclear power plant, it will use electricity to pump water up the hill, while during the day, it will use the hydro energy to generate electricity. Location The Tarnița–Lăpuștești power station will be located from Cluj Napoca, on the left bank of the Someşul Cald River valley in the area of the existing Lake Tarnița and the Lăpuștești village, in Râșca commune. Power generation The power station will have four turbines, each capable of producing 250 megawatts, for a total of 1000 megawatts. Schedule Construction has not started. The Romanian state is looking for investors. The stra ... [...More Info...]       [...Related Items...]     OR:     [Wikipedia]   [Google]   [Baidu]   |

Lake Someșul Cald
A lake is an area filled with water, localized in a basin, surrounded by land, and distinct from any river or other outlet that serves to feed or drain the lake. Lakes lie on land and are not part of the ocean, although, like the much larger oceans, they do form part of the Earth's water cycle. Lakes are distinct from lagoons, which are generally coastal parts of the ocean. Lakes are typically larger and deeper than ponds, which also lie on land, though there are no official or scientific definitions. Lakes can be contrasted with rivers or streams, which usually flow in a channel on land. Most lakes are fed and drained by rivers and streams. Natural lakes are generally found in mountainous areas, rift zones, and areas with ongoing glaciation. Other lakes are found in endorheic basins or along the courses of mature rivers, where a river channel has widened into a basin. Some parts of the world have many lakes formed by the chaotic drainage patterns left over from the last ice ...

Mărișelu Hydroelectric Power Station
Mărişelu Hydro Power Plant is a large power plant on the Someşul Cald river situated in Romania. The project was started and finished in the 1980s and it was made up by the construction of a rockfill dam high which was equipped with three hydrounits, the hydropower plant having an installed capacity of 221 MW. The power plant generates 560 GWh of electricity per year.
