The purpose of this report is to offer an alternate location for the Dos Bocas hydroelectricproject as proposed by the Dominican Republic, and sets the operating parameters for anyhydroelectric project planned within the Artibonite Watershed upstream of Peligre. Theprevious study did not consider the effect of Dos Bocas to the operation of Peligre. In orderto set these operational parameters, the Peligre reservoir and hydroelectric facility had to beevaluated to establish a minimum baseline. This report has evaluated these parameters andis proposing an alternate location for Dos Bocas that will greatly benefit Peligre, and increasethe energy production for either Dos Bocas and Peligre. To complete this study and formulatethe operational recommendations, a new “Reservoir Rule Curve” has been modelled. In totalmore than 75 operational simulations of Peligre and Dos Bocas operating in cascade havebeen performed. This report and back up documentations support the findings of this study.
