Assessment of Hydropower Potential in the Upper Indus Basin: A Geographic Information System-Based Multi-Criteria Decision Analysis for Sustainable Water Resources in Pakistan

Resources, Journal Year: 2025, Volume and Issue: 14(3), P. 49 - 49

Published: March 17, 2025

The development of hydropower projects is crucial to addressing Pakistan’s ongoing energy and financial crises. Despite the country’s abundant resources, particularly in northern regions, these have not been adequately explored, while consumption supply issues persisted for past two decades. Focusing on Sustainable Development Goal (SDG-7): “Ensure access affordable, reliable, sustainable, modern energy”, this study aimed assess potential at suitable sites Upper Indus Basin (Pakistan) by integrating Geographic Information Systems (GIS) Multi-Criteria Decision Analysis (MCDM). This only focused estimating but also considered environmental constraints all using multi-criteria decision-making (MCDM) tool, which used location constraint criteria, along with benefit cost criteria. methodology combines technical evaluations (head discharge) prioritize sustainable development. Key findings identify 17, 15, 16, 5, 6 as most promising locations, balancing generation minimal impact. provides a replicable framework policymakers harness resources responsibly, contributing security aligning global Goals. approach bridges gap between feasibility sustainability offers model other regions facing similar challenges.

Assessing climate change impacts on extreme hydrological characteristics of reservoir inflow in Tianshan Mountain Range, China

Scientific Reports, Journal Year: 2025, Volume and Issue: 15(1)

Published: April 28, 2025

The hydrological extremes, caused by increasing regional extreme precipitation and melting glaciers or snow under climate change, pose a major challenge to reservoir management in Tianshan Mountain Range of China. Modeling assessment extremes are important measures ensure the safety operations water resources. However, insufficient faced reservoirs has limited development flood risk early warning methods for mountain reservoirs. To this end, based on VIC-CAS-R model that coupled with glacier snowmelt modules, study analyzed evaluated changing characteristics streamflow selected from 1961 2014, Standardized Streamflow Index (SSI) Mann-Kendall test were used identify as well trends. result indicated (1) showed segmented change trend "increasing-decreasing-increasing"; (2) notable variations temporal spatial distribution, located western area decrease wet (up 70.8%) an increase dry 73.9%), while eastern region experienced simultaneous 119.8%). These insights help deepen comprehension induced reservoirs, provide support predicting other arid inland regions.
