Trade-Offs in the Water-Energy-Ecosystem Nexus for Cascade Hydropower Systems: A Case Study of the Yalong River, China

Abstract: The hydropower system’s water-energy-ecosystem nexus (WEEN) has gained particular focus in the last years. The water-use trade-offs between hydropower and ecosystem maintenance are complex and variable for cascade hydropower systems, leading to challenges in water resources management and sustainable development of hydropower. To understand the trade-off in the WEEN of cascade hydropower systems and their changes, a WEEN model using the multi-objective optimization approach is developed in this study, includin… Show more

“…At present, China's 13 major hydropower bases, including Jinsha River, Dadu River, Yalong River, Wujiang River, Hongshui River, Lancang River and Yellow River, are also under comprehensive development and construction. Among them, the Yalong River Hydropower Base ranks the third in the "China's Thirteen Largest Hydropower Base Plan", second only to the Jinsha River Hydropower Base and the Yangtze River Upstream Hydropower Base, and the potential hydropower resources of the whole basin are 30 million kilowatts (Wu et al, 2022).…”

“…Reservoir operation scheme is to generate a set of feasible operation schemes based on the results of real-time hydrological forecast and on the premise of determining the operation objectives and constraints (Wu et al, 2022a). Decision-making for reservoir operation scheme is to select the advantages and disadvantages of several feasible operation schemes at the future time of the reservoir (Zhu et al, 2017a;Vassoney et al, 2021), so as to make the reservoir obtain the maximum benefit of flood control and benefit.…”
