This book presents research on a kind of water use conflicts that
is becoming more and more common and important: How to best manage
moving water in times of increasing demand for electricity as well
as environmental services. How should decisions be made between
water use for electricity generation or for environmental and
recreational benefits? The authors develop a simple general
equilibrium model of a small open economy which is used to derive a
cost-benefit rule that can be used to assess projects that divert
water from electricity generation to recreational and other uses
(or vice versa). The cost-benefit rule is then applied to the
specific case of a proposed change at a Swedish hydropower plant.
The book provides a manual for the evaluation of river regulations
which can easily be replicated in other studies.
