The NRP70 project “The Future of Swiss Hydropower: An Integrated Economic Assessment of Chances, Threats and Solutions” coordinates four clustered projects on hydropower operation and economic performance, hydropower investment and uncertainty, the regional impact and sustainability assessment of hydropower, as well as the effects of water fee reform options.
The aim of the third and final Workshop is to present results and insights obtained during the project along the market and policy dimensions. A particular focus will be placed on the impact of and discussion on potential policy and regulatory adjustments from different stakeholder perspectives. The Workshop provides the opportunity to exchange on results and conclusions obtained in the last four years and to identify challenges and obstacles that need to be resolved until 2024, when the water fee regime is to be revised again.
