Multi-Objective Optimization of Folsom Reservoir Operation
Contemporary reservoir systems often require operators to meet a variety of objectives, which frequently complicate water management decisions. In addition, many reservoir objectives have non-linear relationships and are difficult to implement using traditional optimization techniques. A practical application of multi-objective optimization is developed for Folsom Reservoir near Sacramento, California where water delivery, hydropower and downstream temperature control are desired. Fishery habitat is maintained in the summer and early fall by regulating river temperatures downstream of Folsom reservoir, at a potential cost to hydropower generation. In this application, optimal seasonal reservoir release decisions are found using a multi-objective evolutionary algorithm and a one-dimensional hydrodynamic reservoir temperature model. Seasonal reservoir release policies are examined to evaluate tradeoffs between objectives.
