Hydropower plants and reservoirs can have negative
impacts on their surrounding ecosystems. To limit such impacts,
environmental regulations may be imposed. This paper provides
a review of literature on the most commonly used environmental
constrains in scheduling of hydro-dominated systems and proposed constraints for future market conditions. Furthermore,
we review literature on how environmental constraints are
included in hydropower scheduling methods and discuss the main
modelling challenges. We find an increasing interest in modelling
of environmental constraints in recent literature, and conclude
by highlighting challenges to improving the representation of
environmental regulations in hydropower scheduling models.
