Har bibliografi | | Innhold: | Sammendrag: The analysis presented in this report, estimates the effect of climate
change on the hydro power potential of Georgia. A theoretical hydro power potential under the prevailing climate conditions has been calculated in an earlier study, and is the reference potential. Three climate projections and two emission scenarios has been used to span possible future climate realizations. A hydrological
model estimates the response of a changed climate on the hydrological regime. The effects have been studied with a focus on the near future (2031-2060) and the end of the century (2071-2100), relative to the control period 1961-1990. There is a tendency common to all projections, and amplified for the high emission scenario, that the power potential increases along the Greater Caucasus. In the other regions of Georgia, the power potential decreases or has minor changes | | Eier: | NVE |
