The head and flow of available water determine the amount of electricity that can be generated. When planning a hydroelectric power plant, it is necessary to pay attention to seasonal and annual differences in water availability.
Main concepts
What is small hydropower?
Small hydropower here refers to hydropower plants with an installed capacity of less than 10 MW. Hydropower plants are power plants that generate electricity by driving turbines and generators through the gravitational force of falling or flowing water.
Advantages of small hydropower
Non-conventional and renewable energy sources have recently become one of the most important criteria for sustainable development of the global community.
