Welcome to the Hydro Portal

Hydro power or water power is the electrical energy generated from falling or running water. The hydro portal introduces hydro energy and then briefly outlines the articles on generation, transmission and distribution of hydro energy on energypedia.

Technological Aspects of Hydro Power


Policy Framework for Hydro Power


Operation and Business Models of Hydro Power


Financing Models and Costs for Hydro Power


Social and Environmental Impacts of Hydro Power


Hydro Power and Climate Change


FAQs
