Objective
The global goal is improving the energy production from renewable resources. Hydro power facilities fulfil this demand attractively and at the same time help to meet the Kyoto objectives of CO_2 reduction. Efficient energy management of hydro power resources requires accurate forecasting of water capacity from snow melting and run- off. The filling prognoses from snow for hydro power reservoirs is today too inaccurate on the order of 30 to 50 %, as present instruments measure only about half of the snow fall. Because of this the calibration of remotely sensed data e.g. from satellite or aircraft is inaccurate. The prognosis calculations involve snow models which describe the metamorphose, compacting, melting, refreezing, percolation and water saturation, which determine the melting and run-off times.

Funding Scheme
Funding scheme (or “Type of Action”) inside a programme with common features. It specifies: the scope of what is funded; the reimbursement rate; specific evaluation criteria to qualify for funding; and the use of simplified forms of costs like lump sums.
