Abstract
Hydropower dams in Korea were built for power generation at the time of construction, but they have been operated with the additional purposes of supplying water, controlling floods, and environmental improvement through an agreement with the Han River Flood Control Office. However, these operations will result in losses of power generation, and may adversely affect the energy utilization. Therefore, it is the time to re-evaluate diversification of the dam operation method. In this study, the concept of resilience is introduced to evaluate the multi-function of hydropower dams. The resilience of the hydropower dams was defined as the recovery capacity of the dam water level, and framework was proposed to evaluate water supply and flood control performance. The applicability of resilience in hydropower dam was reviewed as a simulation result using historical data. In the future, if the economic feasibility of the dam performance such as power generation, water supply, flood control, and environmental improvement is evaluated, it can be utilized in establishing the operation standards for hydropower dams in line with the policy.
