    The optimal monthly operating policy of a multireservoir hydroelectric power system is a stochastic nonlinear problem. This paper presents a new method for determining the optimal monthly operating policy of a power system of n reservoirs in series on a river taking into account the stochasticity of the river flows. Functional optimization techniques and minimum-norm formulation have been used to find the optimal release policy of the system. Results for a numerical example composed of four reservoirs are presented.
