"Dynamic Reservoir Operations (DRO) are operating rules that change based on the present state of a system, such as storage levels, current inflow, and/or forecasted conditions. Dynamic operations tend to be effective because they depend on a diverse group of variables that result in a more robust operational framework, providing utilities more information for operating their system to meet objectives under varying conditions. The primary objectives of the full project were 1) to demonstrate the potential value of dynamic reservoir operations in improving system reliability, resilience, and performance under challenging climate conditions and 2) to provide utilities with practical guidance to decide if and how to implement DRO. The Reservoir Operations Development Guide was created to help meet the second objective." -- Abstract. |
