Abstract

This paper deals with uncertainty and economical risks in hydropower projects. It discusses the different items that influence the economics of a hydropower project and the uncertainty each item (ie. dam, power house, etc) is burdened with. Different methods for assessing the uncertainty associated with each item, and their influence on the overall project uncertainty are discussed. The use of Monte Carlo simulation for computing risk is illustrated with an example.
