History
Future potential
The technical potential for the growth of
hydropower around the world are, 71%
Europe, 75% North America, 79% South
America, 95% Africa, 95% Middle East, 82%
Asia Pacific. The political realities of new
reservoirs in western countries, economic
limitations in the third world and the lack
of a transmission system in undeveloped
areas, result in the possibility of
developing 25% of the remaining potential
before 2050, with the bulk of that being in
the Asia Pacific area.[13] A few countries
are highly developed and have very little
room for growth, Switzerland 12% and
Mexico 20%.

Small
Small hydro is the development of
hydroelectric power on a scale serving a
small community or industrial plant. The
definition of a small hydro project varies
but a generating capacity of up to 10
megawatts (MW) is generally accepted as
the upper limit of what can be termed
small hydro. This may be stretched to 25
MW and 30 MW in Canada and the United
States. Small-scale hydroelectricity
production grew by 28% during 2008 from
2005, raising the total world small-hydro
capacity to 85 GW. Over 70% of this was in
China (65 GW), followed by Japan
(3.5 GW), the United States (3 GW), and
India (2 GW).[19]
Micro
Micro hydro is a term used for
hydroelectric power installations that
typically produce up to 100 kW of power.
These installations can provide power to
an isolated home or small community, or
are sometimes connected to electric
power networks. There are many of these
installations around the world, particularly
in developing nations as they can provide
an economical source of energy without
purchase of fuel.[20] Micro hydro systems
complement photovoltaic solar energy
systems because in many areas, water
flow, and thus available hydro power, is
highest in the winter when solar energy is
at a minimum.
Pico
Underground
is Power in watts,
is the density of water (~1000 kg/m3),
is height in meters,
is flow rate in cubic meters per
second,
is acceleration due to gravity of
9.8 m/s2,
is a coefficient of efficiency ranging
from 0 to 1. Efficiency is often higher
(that is, closer to 1) with larger and more
modern turbines.
