The “Hanmo” Hydropower Macro Model Development and Application Project aims to tackle the challenges of intelligence within the hydropower industry. Leveraging Tsinghua University’s independently developed GLM macro model, the project delves into the paradigm of macro model development and application specific to hydropower. Its primary objective is to pioneer the development of the industry’s first domestically controllable macro model. Building on this foundation, the project endeavors to create intelligent business scenario macro model products characterized by their versatility and low maintenance costs. Ultimately, the project seeks to drive the smart transformation of the hydropower sector and foster the development of new high-quality productivity.
