Dr Byman Hamududu, Researcher, Norwegian University of Science and Technology (NTNU) Hydropower is influenced by climate change, but it can also contribute to alleviating the problem. Panellists will present and discuss four aspects of these relationships: Science and uncertainty relating to the impact of climate change on hydrology; Reviewing the relationship between hydropower and the natural greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions in the river basin; Methods and incentives to use hydropower to offset GHG emissions from more carbon-intensive sources of energy; and assessing the role of hydropower infrastructure in the face of increasing floods and drought.
