Hydropower Extending Power System Flexibility
The overarching goal of the XFLEX project is therefore to demonstrate an innovative methodology for system integration of hydroelectric technology solutions and to draw the roadmap for enabling the European fleet of hydroelectric power plants to contribute significantly to the increase of the flexibility of the electric power system while achieving an improved average annual overall efficiency of the hydroelectric machinery and further providing high availability of the hydropower plants (HPPs) and maximising performance.
