On 11 April 2024, the first of five Co-Development Workshops of the iAMP-Hydro project (iAMP stands for intelligent Assessment Management Platform) was held. It was an online workshop, broadcasted from Granada, Spain, where the iAMP-Hydro consortium has gathered for a regular general meeting.
The iAMP-Hydro Co-Development Workshops are open for interested stakeholders to learn about new findings of the project and to openly discuss them with stakeholders from all target groups. Read more here.

11 April 2024 marked the unofficial inauguration of the iAMP-Hydro Community of Practice as well, the open exchange platform for stakeholders from the sectors PV and wind energy, as well as of course hydropower. In this forum, stakeholders who are interested in the digitalisation of hydropower plants can follow the results of the hydropower experts from the iAMP-Hydro. The connection between hydropower and PV and wind energy can mean a considerable leverage effect for the volatile RES. Registration and participation at the Community of Practice is free of charge, thanks to funding from the European Union.
