Availability Projections of Hydroelectric Power Plants through Monte Carlo Simulation

Availability Projections of Hydroelectric Power Plants through Monte Carlo Simulation

The present work proposes a Monte Carlo Simulation (MCS) to obtain availability projections for Hydroelectric Power Plants (HPP), based mainly on regulatory aspects involving the Availability Factor (AFA). The main purpose of the simulation is to generate scenarios to obtain statistics for risk anal...
