Hydropower Forecasting Reliable Insights for Optimised Energy Production

What is hydropower forecasting?

Hydropower forecasting is the process of predicting river flows, reservoir levels, and energy production potential to optimise the generation of hydroelectric power. Accurate forecasts are essential for managing water resources efficiently, maximising energy output, and ensuring system reliability during peak demands or variable weather conditions.

The process of hydropower forecasting

Preparation

We begin by identifying the specific forecasting needs for your operation—whether it’s predicting river water levels, reservoir inflow, lake levels, spilled discharge, or hydropower production. If available, historical data such as discharge rates, reservoir inflow, and energy production will be used to calibrate our models. The more data you provide, the higher the accuracy of the forecasts.

Real-time data integration

Real-time data significantly improves forecast precision. Together, we establish data transfer systems tailored to your infrastructure, with options including FTP exchanges or other secure methods. Hydrique Engineers also offers additional hydro-meteorological insights to complement your data.

Accessing your forecast

We ensure secure, user-friendly access to your forecasting data. Options include mobile platforms, web maps, graphics, downloadable files, and alerts via SMS or email. Each access method can be customised to meet your operational requirements.

Expert assessment and model refinement

Our experts evaluate daily numerical weather predictions, selecting the most reliable forecasts based on current weather patterns. By combining multiple models, we provide a forecast with confidence intervals, helping you make informed decisions.

Actionable insights and archives

Our forecasting system offers 15-day predictions, refreshed every hour, ensuring your operation has up-to-date insights. Share these forecasts seamlessly with stakeholders and access archives of past data for analysis and planning.
