Multipurpose dams

Adaptation of management models for multipurpose dams, to take into account the new challenges (climate change, new water uses, aging infrastructures etc.)

This section aims to discuss how multipurpose dams are adapting to changes caused by climate change and the increasing pressure from different water uses. This involves discussions on how different management approaches, including adaptative strategies, available instruments (standards) and other mechanisms can contribute to meeting future demands for energy security, sustainability and resilience of multi-purpose infrastructures and water security.

Promote the development of allocation keys to share the investment burden, as well as the multiple benefits expected from multipurpose dams

The objective is to share recommendations to maximize the economic benefits of multipurpose dams (generation, navigation and consumption) and present different financing options according to each project.
