Small Hydro Highlights

The global small hydropower market has continued to recover over recent months. Africa, East and South East Asia remain the most active regions. However, the new corona virus pandemic puts a question mark over the short-term market perspective. This does not change the fundamental importance of small hydropower though, which is vital for increasing rural electrification with sustainable energy from renewable resources.
