This paper presents a survey of simulation and optimization modeling approaches used in
reservoir systems operation problems. Optimization methods have been proved of much …

Emerging evidence showing trends in climate change with a strong likelihood those
changes will continue elevates the importance of finding affordable adaptations by irrigated …

Hydropower plants play an integral role in energy supply and are one of the main renewable
energy sources. The efficiency of hydropower reservoir systems is controlled by operating …

Reservoirs perform both flood control and integrated water resources development, in which
the flood limited water level (FLWL) is the most significant parameter of tradeoff between …

Complementary operation is a new effective way to simultaneously manage hydropower
and photovoltaic (PV) power. With the integration of a PV power into an existing hydropower …

Genetic algorithms (GA) have been widely applied to solve water resources system
optimization. With the increase of the complexity and the larger problem scale of water …

Reservoir operation optimization aims to determine release and transfer decisions that
maximise water management objectives such as ensuring a reliable water supply …

Integrating dispatchable hydropower with nondispatchable photovoltaic (PV) power is a
promising way to enhance resource use efficiency. However, hybrid generation of these …

This study contributes a decision analytic framework to overcome policy inertia and myopia
in complex river basin management contexts. The framework combines reservoir policy …

This paper investigates the performance of seven stochastic models used to define optimal
reservoir operating policies. The models are based on implicit (ISO) and explicit stochastic …
