Short summary
Under a changing climate, reliable information on future hydrological conditions is necessary to inform water resource management.

Using these indices, we identified stakeholder needs and used this to tailor the production of our climate change impact projections. We show that opportunities and risks for a hydropower company depend on a range of factors beyond those covered by traditional studies.
