Research and Markets Remaining Hydro Potential to be Found in Developing...

Research and Markets (http://www.researchandmarkets.com/reports/c20217) has announced the addition of Hydropower Report - Large and Small Hydropower Ed 1 2005 to their offering.



Hydropower is the largest renewable source of electricity. It accounts for 6% of primary energy supply and 17% of electrical generation. Although there are hydro electric projects under construction in about 80 countries most of the remaining hydro potential is found in developing countries particularly in South and Central Asia, Latin America and Africa. This report is a comprehensive study and analysis of the global hydro power market.



This report discusses environmental objections to hydropower and the different impacts on the futures for LHP and SHP. The effects on population, wild life, eco systems, water diversion, landscape, and the potentially critical new problem of methane, which is being researched and could condemn LHP as more environmentally damaging than fossil fuels.



The report covers both large hydropower (LHP) and small hydropower (SHP), mini and micro, and explains the differences between them. It is not simply a question of size but different technologies. It gives an outline of the size of the hydropower industry, separately for large and small. A regional break and analysis of hydropower's distribution country by country is included together with analyses of the future demand for hydropower, both LHP and SHP. The report profiles hydropower in each country and lists of hydro plants in each country, totalling over 2,400.
