Working Group 1

Within WG1, the Action will focus mainly on the conditions for the use of hydropower within flexible systems. Attention will be paid to the assumptions and trends of electricity accumulation for various water sources and conditions, innovative systems and monitoring options.

Tasks

T1.1 Understanding the basic assumptions and trends of electricity accumulation for different water sources and conditions

T1.2 Innovative approaches to Network energy storage related to networks and flexible solutions, e.g., innovative electricity generation management systems

T1.3 Defining the best monitoring and management of electricity storage sources in relation to hydropower

Activities

Discussion on the importance of the use of hydropower concerning on the flexibility, storage, reliability during COST meetings

Linking local stakeholder groups (LSGs) (academic, industrial and governmental) in the electrical part of Hydropower use to identify weaknesses in Hydropower intensification

Discussion with the LSGs on the condition for settlement the Hydropower as one bedrock of clean and secure electricity for future
