Demonstration of hydropower technologies for efficient and forward-looking refurbishment of existing hydropower plants
Call summary
From the official text, opening part
Expected Outcome: For a renewables-based electricity system sufficient flexible and also in the long-run fully sustainable hydropower capacity is pivotal. Project results are expected to contribute to all of the following expected outcomes: Enhancing the capacities of the hydropower fleet to contribute with variable renewables base load to a secure and stable electricity system, including by modernising grid integration and hydropower fleet control. Increase technology leadership, competitiveness and technology export potential of European hydropower industry. Address challenges of climate change adaptation for a forward-looking and stable operation of sustainable hydropower for the coming decades. Scope: Demonstration of hydropower technology solutions which allow for efficient and forward-looking refurbishment of existing hydropower plants. Provided solutions must be socioeconomically … more

The fit is computed by code on every request. The call text (title, keywords, start of the official description) is compared with three sources: semantic similarity to the academic profile (50%), shared distinctive terms in YÖKSİS keywords and OpenAlex topics (25%) and publication content — titles, English abstracts and their Turkish translations (25%). Thanks to the translations, Turkish calls also meet papers written in English. Common words weigh little; below 40% is not shown. A subject hint only — not an eligibility, capacity or merit assessment. Hidden profiles are never listed.
