Advancing water reservoir operations under deep uncertainty via EURAXESS

Politecnico di Milano

Milano, Italy 🇮🇹

Offer Description

Global climate change and socio-economic dynamics are increasingly challenging the long-term performance of water reservoir systems, exacerbating uncertainty in both water availability and demand. This research programme aims to advance reservoir operation and planning under deep uncertainty by developing integrated, multi-objective frameworks that allow adapting operational policies and other planning decisions over time. The proposed methodologies will support the identification of robust and cost-effective solutions, explicitly accounting for trade-offs among competing objectives and evolving future conditions, and will be demonstrated through representative reservoir system case studies as part of the BERLIN project.
