This paper presents a thorough review of 75 modelling tools currently used for analysing
energy and electricity systems. Increased activity within model development in recent years …

This paper analyzes the role of hydropower reservoirs in the deep decarbonization of power
systems. Extending previous work, this study models the impact of hydro reservoirs on …

Hydropower plants and reservoirs can have negative impacts on their surrounding
ecosystems. To limit such impacts, environmental regulations may be imposed. This paper …

The existing hydropower plants that were built to serve the base load in the past are now
made to run as stand-by units to take up the variation in generation caused due to the …

Meeting climate policy targets in the US Northeast will likely require the nearly complete
decarbonization of electricity generation. To that end, consideration is being given to …

This article aims to obtain and evaluate medium-term operating policies for the hydrothermal
scheduling problem by using the stochastic dual dynamic programming (SDDP) approach …

With ever increasing demand for electricity and the huge potential of renewable energy, an
increasing number of renewable-energy sources are being used to generate electricity …

This study seeks to understand how materials scarcity and competition from alternative uses
affects the potential for widespread deployment of solar electricity in the long run, in light of …

The work documented in this report has been carried out in project WP3. 4 in the HydroCen
research center. We have surveyed the need for improved modelling of environmental and …

In a future power system with high penetration of intermittent renewable energy sources, it
will be necessary to adapt to their changes quickly to ensure system stability. In the …
