Achieving sustainable low fow using hydropower reservoir for ecological water management in Glomma River Norway
Olabiwonnu, Folakemi Ope; Bakken, Tor Haakon; Bokolo, Anthony Junior (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2022)Generally, low flow in rivers occur as a result of extended period of dryness which is likely attributed to drought. Drought is a natural occurrence as an outcome of reduction in precipitation in a region for a long time. ... -
Allocation of water consumption in multipurpose reservoirs
Bakken, Tor Haakon; Modahl, Ingunn Saur; Raadal, Hanne Lerche; Adeva Bustos, Ana; Arnøy, Silje (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2016)The Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change Special Report on Renewable Energy Sources represented a benchmark in the assessment of water consumption from electricity production.

Are Reservoirs Water Consumers or Water Collectors? Reflections on the Water Footprint Concept Applied on Reservoirs
Bakken, Tor Haakon; Johnsen, Fredrikke; Killingtveit, Ånund; Alfredsen, Knut (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2015)IPCC Special Report on Renewable Energy Sources (2011) revealed potentially very high water consumption rates from hydropower production compared to other renewable technologies, but suffered from few studies and methodological ... -
Assess the effect of reservoirs in Sutlej river on high and low flow conditions in the lower parts of the basin
Farhan, Muhammad (Master thesis, 2023)In the south Asian countries of Pakistan, India and Tibet, a considerable portion of population is directly related to agriculture. Water is the essential element for both urban and rural use. In these areas reservoirs are ... -
Assessment of Suitability of WEAP for Studies of the Flood Dampening Effects of Reservoirs in Norway
Hemakumara, Sajana Pramudith (Master thesis, 2022)Flom er en stor fare over hele verden. Det ødelegger både mennesker og dyr og egenskaper. Mange flomreduserende alternativer har blitt grepet inn for å minimere disse skadene. Reservoarer er konstruert for en rekke faktorer; ... -
Assessment of the effect of reservoir sedimentation and lost storage capacities in Devoll basin, Albania, on power production under present and future climatic conditions
Popov, Sergey (Master thesis, 2023)Energiforbruket i Albania øker hvert år, og det enorme potensialet til fornybare energikilder er ennå ikke utnyttet. I 2016 og 2020 utviklet og satt det norske selskapet Statkraft i drift to nye vannkraftstasjoner i Banja ... -
Assessment of the Role of Hydropower Reservoirs in Sustaining Ecologically Viable Low Flow Conditions under Present and Future Climate
Olabiwonnu, Folakemi Ope (Master thesis, 2020)Usually, low flow in rivers occur as a result of an extended period of dryness which is likely attributed to drought. Due to drought being a natural occurrence as an outcome of reduction in precipitation in a region for a ... -
Assessment of the suitability of Green LiDAR in mapping lake bathymetry
Ahmed, Raffa Ahmed Osman; Bakken, Tor Haakon (Research report, 2023)LiDAR stands for Ligth Detection And Ranging technology and is a measurement technique for detailed mapping of the Earth’s surface. The LiDAR sensors can be divided into two main types, the Red LiDAR which is based on the ... -
Banje Reservoir Sedimentation - Hydropower reservoir long-term simulation under different scenarios
Pereyra Yraola, Ignacio (Master thesis, 2023)En av hovedutfordringene ved utforming av vannkraftverk over hele verden er sedimentasjon i reservoarene. Dette kommer av kompleksiteten i drivmekanismene og usikkerheten rundt det klimatiske forholdet systemet utsettes ... -
Classification of hydropeaking impacts on Atlantic salmon populations in regulated rivers
Bakken, Tor Haakon; Harby, Atle; Forseth, Torbjørn; Ugedal, Ola; Sauterleute, Julian Friedrich; Halleraker, Jo Halvard; Alfredsen, Knut (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2021)This article proposes and demonstrates a new classification system of fish population level effects of hydropeaking operations in rivers. The classification of impacts is developed along two axes; first, the hydromorphological ... -
