UNIFYING THE VOICES OF HYDROPOWER
WG-3: Hydropower and Climate Change (adaptation and mitigation)
General scope to:
- Scope covers both climate adaptation (resilience) and climate mitigation (reduction of GHG emissions)
- Establish and communicate with accessible language what are the key issues in relation to climate change, both in terms of risks and opportunities :
-
- Risks: reduction of inflows in some regions à uncertainty on flow risk evolution
- Opportunities: increase of inflows in some other regions à new equipment in periglacial areas; hydropower reservoirs as multi-purpose tools to increase the resilience of combined Hydro-Solar, Hydro-Wind power solutions to reduce GHG emissions in power generation; etc.
-
- Illustrate issues with some representative case studies
-
- Identify R&I needs for increasing knowledge and develop solutions to limit climate change risk, and foster climate-induced opportunities
