What is Dnieper combine scheme?
The Dnieper Hydroelectric Power Station Sequence with
reservoirs, controlling the normally irregular Dnieper River flow
simultaneously with large energy production, created the
prerequisite for extensive irrigation of fertile but arid soil in
the southern Ukraine, for converting the Dnieper River into a
continuous deep-water channel from the Black Sea to the Pripet
estuary and assured the satisfaction of the growing industrial and
population water consumption demand not only on river lands but in
the water deficient Donbas, Krivoi Rog and Crimea regions.
