Hydro climate inflows
| Package version | |
| Description | Hydro inflows for Switzerland under CH2018 climate scenarios |
| Notes | Inflows for Swiss hydropower under different climate scenarios in MWh per month. The sum of total Swiss inflows in energy is in one file, and another file contains by-technology data (each comes in CSV and XLSX). Note that due to capacity restrictions not all energy potential can be used by Swiss power plants. Therefore, make sure to calibrate historic climate to actual historic production when using the data. |
