Introduction

Definitions of Small Hydro – No one definition – upper limit generally 10MW – up to 50MW in China

Low env. impact (ROR) Mini Hydro < 1 MW Micro Hydro < 100 kW Pico Hydro < 5 kW

International SHP Markets

EU - largest supplier of SHP turbines Domestic market constraints Growing energy needs in dev. countries EUREES study suggests India and China as short term market African and Latin American countries in medium and long term Power Sector Restructuring in DCs

India Estimated SHP potential of 15,000 MW Only about 10% has been developed Favourable government policy Govt. actively encouraging private sector Well-established financing packages Recognition of usefulness of SHP in remote areas

Uganda

Abundant hydro resource (2000 MW along Nile) 1% rural Uganda electrified Inventory identified 200 MW of non-Nile sites Power sector reform Financing a key concern Possibility of CDM funding G8 focus on Africa

Conclusions - Countries China has massive potential but needs different approach Huge untapped market in India with big potential for intervention and govt. support Brazil - govt. incentives for SHP Massively under-electrified Uganda and Africa offer a significant potential
