The key question in hydropower production is the time pattern of the use of the water in the reservoir. The water used … to produce electricity today can alternatively be used tomorrow. The analysis of the operation of hydropower is therefore … essentially a dynamic one. The paper introduces some basic models for social allocation of stored water over discrete time periods …
