The activity of any enterprise is always associated with risk. This is especially true of hydropower enterprises, since they work in the conditions of renewable energy sources, which are directly dependent on nature. This necessitates the introduction of the concept of risk management, which will take into account risk factors in the process of developing and approving management decisions. Hydroelectric power plants play an important role in ensuring the required quality of electrical supply, participating in regulating voltage and frequency, covering the uneven part of daily load schedules, guaranteeing measured operation modes of nuclear and thermal power plants, increasing the safety and economy of operation of the final cycles load, performing the function of a temporary emergency and operational power reserve. The purpose of this article is to analyze the characteristics of risk management in hydropower, as well as to justify the development and feasibility of introducing the concept of risk management in hydropower.
