The objective of this work package is to integrate circular economy principles into hydropower refurbishment by assessing the environmental, economic, and sustainability impacts of the technologies developed within the project. The work package supports informed decision-making by evaluating long-term performance and resource efficiency.
Life Cycle Assessment (LCA), Life Cycle Inventory (LCI), and Life Cycle Costing (LCC) methodologies will be applied to quantify environmental impacts, material use, and economic viability. The results will be used to compare refurbishment options and ensure that RevHydro solutions contribute to sustainable and resource-efficient hydropower systems.
