Powersheds
Abstract
Powersheds is an open scientific software project for simulating river–reservoir cascades. It combines the performance of Rust with a friendly Python interface to model storage, pool elevation, head, releases, spills, routing lags, and power generation at hourly resolution. Designed for coupling with power-system models, simulations are driven by plant-level target power schedules and report realized generation after accounting for hydrologic and operational constraints.
