Multi-objective Optimal Scheduling of Water-Carbon in Cascade Reservoirs during Impoundment for Carbon Emission Reduction by ZHOU Yan-lai, NING Zhi-hao, HE Jun-tao

“…[Methods] Given that current studies on cascade reservoir impoundment scheduling have not yet incorporated carbon reduction objectives, this study proposed a multi-objective water-carbon scheduling model for cascade reservoirs during impoundment period based on the carbon emission factor method.An early storage strategy for cascade reservoirs was developed,and three objectives—minimizing flood control risk,maximizing power generation,and minimizing greenhouse gas emissions—were established.The Non-dominated Sorting Genetic Algorithm Ⅱ (NSGA-Ⅱ) was employed to derive optimal scheduling schemes for the impoundment period.…”
