The absolute leader in hydropower generation per capita are Norway, Iceland Sweden, Canada (the share of hydropower in the total output is up to 98%). The largest hydropower producers, including pumped storage stations in absolute terms are China, Canada, Brazil and the United States, closes the top five leaders is Russia. Most of the economically feasible hydro potential has already been mastered, in particular in Europe for 75%, in North America for 70%, and in developing countries the hydro potential has not yet been revealed. Africa has developed 21% of the world's hydropower in Asia, 39%, while they contribute only 5 and 18% to the world's hydropower generation respectively[1]. South America and Australia have 15% of the hydro resources, provide only 11% of the world's hydroelectricity. According to the estimates of the International Energy Agency, in the next one and a half to two decades, up to 80% of the increase in hydroelectric capacity will be accounted for by developing countries, where there the untapped hydro potential is large, and environmental considerations play a lesser role (both due to less stringent environmental standards and due to the low politicization of environmental issues).[2] (fig. 1).
Fig. 1. Hydropower plants in% in the World by IRENA
IRENA estimates jobs in in the main segments of the value chain in life cycle of HPS: manufacturing, construction and installation, operations and maintenance, its about approximately 1.93 million people worldwide worked in the hydro sector in 2019. Mostly of them in China, India and Brazil are the largest employers, and the next line represented by Pakistan, Viet Nam, Russian Federation[3].
Hydropower energy in Russia is a branch of the Russian electric power industry. As of 2018, there are 102 hydroelectric power plants and pumped storage power plants (with a capacity of more than 10 MW) with a total capacity of 51.7 GW were operated in Russia (including hydroelectric power plants with a total

capacity of 48,506.3 MW were operated as part of the Unified Energy System of Russia). Hydropower accounts has for about 20% of the installed capacity of the Russian electric power industry and 17-18% of electricity generation in Russia. As of 2019, most of the capacities of Russian HPPs are operated by RusHydro (30.2 GW HPP and PSPP)[4]. Other large operators of hydroelectric power plants in Russia are EuroSibEnergo - 15.1 GW, PJSC TGK-1-2.9 GW, Tatenergo - 1 GW, JSC Norilsk-Taimyr Energy Company - 1 GW. Hydroelectric power plants generate about 17-18% of electricity in Russia, which is more than 99% of electricity generation based on renewable sources in the country (by the end of 2018, hydroelectric power plants generated 197.3 billion kWh/h, all other power plants based on renewable energy sources - about 1 billion kWh/h). In some regions (Magadan Oblast, most of the republics of the North Caucasus), hydropower accounts for more than 90% of the generated electricity[5].
The bulk of Russia's hydropower resources are concentrated in Eastern Siberia and the Far East. The technical hydropower potential of Eastern Siberia and
the Far East is 1347.7 TWh (81% of the total Russian), the economic potential is 644 TWh (76% of the total Russian). About 9% of the world's hydropower reserves are concentrated on its territory. The Energy Strategy of the Russian Federation until 2030 and the draft Energy Strategy of the Russian Federation until 2035 envisage an increase in electricity consumption, including through the development of available hydropower resources in Eastern Siberia and the Far East. The development of hydropower resources in Russia is 21.5%. In the zone of influence of the IES of the European part of Russia, more than 41% of the economic potential is developed, in the zone of influence of the IES of the Asian part - less than 16%. The unused balance of the economic hydropower potential of Siberia is 277 TW. h, including: Eastern Siberia - 233 TW. h, the Far East - 270 TW. h. The construction of hydroelectric power plants in most cases, especially in remote underdeveloped and difficult for the population of areas, gives an initial impetus to economic development and improvement of the territory, and the social aspect of hydroelectric projects increases employment of the population[6] (tabl. 1).

Sustainable development
RusHydro implements projects in the field of wind energy in the Far Eastern Federal District developes in 2013-2018, two wind farms were commissioned in the Kamchatka Territory, two in Yakutia and one in the Sakhalin Region, the total installed capacity of the wind farm was 2.175 MW. Also in 2013, a wind power plant was commissioned in the Yamalo-Nenets Autonomous District.
The development of wind power in remote settlements isolated from the unified energy system allows for the payback of projects due to partial replacement of the generation of diesel power plants and the corresponding significant savings in expensive diesel fuel. The greatest effect is achieved when creating integrated wind-diesel complexes, including wind turbines, highly efficient diesel power plants and energy storage systems. The first such complex was built by RusHydro together with Japanese partners in 2018-2020 in the Arctic village of Tiksi.
RusHydro develops various areas of renewable energy - small hydropower, wind, solar and geothermal energy.
Small hydropower
RusHydro operates 35 small hydropower plants (less than 50 MW), most of them are located in the North Caucasus and four in Kamchatka. In 2016 was mastered the Zaragizhskaya HPP with a capacity of 30.6 MW was put into operation, in 2017 - the small HPP "Bolshoi Zelenchuk" (1.26 MW), in 2020 - Verkhnebalkarskaya SHPP (10 MW), Ust-Dzhegutinskaya SHPP (5, 6 MW) and Barsuchkovskaya SHPP (5.25 MW). The design and construction of four more small hydroelectric power plants is underway, these projects are being implemented within the framework of the state program for supporting the electric power industry based on renewable energy sources with the conclusion of agreements on the provision of capacity, which guarantees their payback.

Solar energy
Projects in the field of solar energy are also being implemented by RusHydro in the Far East in order to provide power supply to remote settlements isolated from the unified energy system. Sakhaenergo JSC (part of the RusHydro group) successfully operates 21 SPPs with a total capacity of 1.606 MW. In 2015, within the framework of an agreement with the Government of the Republic of Sakha (Yakutia), the largest polar solar power plant with a capacity of 1 MW was built in the Batagai settlement of the Verkhoyansk region of the Republic of Sakha (Yakutia). SPP in Batagay is also included in the Guinness Book of Records as the northernmost solar station in the world. The annual savings in diesel fuel of all commissioned solar power plants is more than 460 tons.
In 2019, solar panels with a capacity of 1275 kW were put into operation in the Amur Region on the territory of the Nizhne-Bureyskaya HPP. This is the first project in Russia to create a combined hydro-solar generation. The production of solar panels is used to meet the own needs of the Nizhne-Bureyskaya HPP, which increases the efficient supply of electricity by the station. Also, in 2020, the first floating solar power plant in Russia was commissioned at the Nizhne-Bureyskaya HPP.
Geothermal energy within the Company is represented by operating stations in Kamchatka (Pauzhet-skaya GeoPP, Verkhne-Mutnovskaya GeoPP, Mut-novskaya GeoPP are part of a subsidiary of PJSC Kamchatskenergo) with a total capacity of 74 MW[11].
The specific of Occupational safety policy of RusHydro

Interaction with trade unions
Employees of RusHydro Group enterprises have the opportunity to fully exercise their right to freedom of association. Trade unions have been established and operate freely at most enterprises of the RusHydro Group, and in 2018 there were 35,882 members of trade union organizations in the RusHydro Group. Collective agreements have been concluded in all generating branches of PJSC RusHydro and 40 controlled companies. 96% of RusHydro Group employees in 2018 were covered by collective agreements. PJSC RusHydro and 12 controlled organizations are members of the All-Russian Industry Association of Electric Power Industry Employers, the ERA of Russia Association, three more controlled organizations are joined to the Industry Tariff Agreement in the Electric Power Industry of the Russian Federation. The sectoral tariff agreement forms a unified standard for regulating social and labor relations in the industry and establishes a minimum level of guarantees for employees. The presence of such a standard greatly facilitates the dialogue between the parties to social partnership at the level of companies in the industry and the RusHydro Group, and makes it possible to compare and assess the level of guarantees provided to employees of the holding and the industry.
All companies - members of the ERA of Russia Association comply with the key norms of the Industry Tariff Agreement: the size and frequency of indexation of MMTS, the provision of such additional benefits and guarantees to employees as the payment of a onetime remuneration when leaving on the main paid vacation, material assistance in connection with the on-

set of significant events (marriage, childbirth, death of close relatives), a lump sum payment upon dismissal in connection with retirement, payment to a family in connection with the death of workers at work and death from a general illness or an accident at home, as well as other benefits provided by the Industry a tariff agreement in the presence of financial and economic capabilities of the Company (50% discount of the established payment for electric and thermal energy, compensation of expenses for the maintenance of children of employees in preschool institutions, monthly compensation payment to employees on parental leave, etc.). It should be noted that PJSC RusHydro in terms of providing benefits and guarantees to employees provides for norms that exceed the Industry Tariff Agreement both in terms of the list and in terms of the amount of social benefits provided. RusHydro carries out charitable activities, guided by the Policy of Charitable and Sponsorship Activities of the Company (approved by the decision of the Board of Directors, Minutes No. 280 dated 07.12.2018). The main goal is to create conditions and opportunities for sustainable development of the regions where RusHydro Group enterprises operate, to create a favorable social environment and to contribute to the growth of the spiritual, scientific, technical and intellectual potential of Russia.
In terms of work with specialized professional educational institutions, the key event in 2018 was the opening, with the support of PJSC RusHydro, of the Institute of Hydropower and Renewable Energy Sources at NRU MPEI. The Institute has combined education and training of engineering personnel for hydropower and renewable energy sources into a single center. The training center was created on the basis of the departments "Hydroelectric power and RES", "Hydromechanics and hydraulic machines", "Innovative technologies of technogenic safety", which train bachelors, masters and graduate students in the profile specialties of PJSC RusHydro.

~ In sum, the social consequences of RES development
sb closely depend on the general indicators of the quality
of life, which RES can be influenced, on the one hand, acting as an employer in direct and related industries, on the other hand, as a mechanism to reduce environmental risks and stimulate long-term changes by reducing the cost of the resulting energy and opportunities to redistribute the profits from renewable energy sources to other industries that contribute to these changes. It is possible to fix the qualitative mechanism of social costs: a change in the structure and nature of social interactions and energy communications, affecting related sectors of the economy, culture, economy on different scales. Quantitative indicators taken as the calculation of jobs are important at the planning stage, but will be insufficient in the framework of the regional development program, since it only fixes jobs, and not the possibility of long-term planning for the redistribution of future capital investments from profits to other infrastructures that require additional financial inflows. To do this, it is necessary to consider the infrastructure of the region, taking into account the indicators of the quality of life, with the fixation of the most problematic places and industries. The jobs based on renewable energy sources can be primarily provided for enterprises that provide the city's main profit, and for the most import-intensive or scarce industries. In Russia, the policy of supporting renewable energy sources provides for a certain degree of localization of the implementation of WME projects, which contributes to the development of domestic production, the creation of additional added value and jobs within the country. In addition, the construction of new renewable energy facilities is labor-intensive in comparison with other traditional generating technologies, therefore, provision is required not only for renewable energy sources, but also for the means of their production.
