BIM and Semantic Web–Based Circular Design System for Sustainable Construction Management of Hydropower Engineering

Abstract

AbstractThe sustainable construction of hydropower engineering is crucial for ensuring access to reliable energy while mitigating environmental impacts. However, effective knowledge sharing during the construction phase is severely hindered by data ...Practical ApplicationsAchieving net-zero emissions by midcentury may require a potential doubling of the current global hydropower capacity; however, the associated construction activities inevitably cause significant environmental, social, and economic ...This graphical abstract consists of three parts. The first part, 'Construction Sustainability Goals', illustrates the hierarchical process for setting sustainability targets and includes a schematic of a hydropower facility. The second part presents '...
