Small hydropower generation has been in existence for well over a century, with very little advancement in terms of the fundamental technology utilised to produce electricity. However, the pressing need for renewable energy and increased electrification for rural areas in the developing world has revitalised the marketplace, and has consequently led to the emergence of many opportunistic investments in small hydropower development. China has led the way, backed strongly by the UNFCCC's Clean Development Mechanism (CDM) and a strong commitment to increase national renewable energy generation. Others will likely follow suit to develop projects of 30 MW or less in size from their natural and man-made waterways. market research report
