Small hydropower: water for energy
Luigi Papetti
ESHA
ESHA OBJECTIVES
• Promotion of SHP with an installed capacity up to 10
MW
Lobbying for SHP on European level (European
Parliament, European Commission, etc.)
Support for national SHP associations
Information, dissemination, and awareness raising
for SHP issues (publications, workshops,
conferences)
Research on SHP issues (EC-contracts in different
programs)
SMALL HYDRO DEFINITION
“Hydroelectric power plant with an installed
(maximum) capacity up to 10 MW”
A small hydro plant (6,7 MW)
Another small hydro plant (pico hydro, 600 W)
This is Large Hydro
This is the Largest Hydro ever
What do we pay for?
Power
Energy
Rule of thumb for run-of-river plants
E [kWh] = P [kW] x 4.500 [h]
P [kW] ~ Q [m3/s] x H [m] x 7,8
P = electrical power output
Q = rated discharge
H = net head

Potential
economic - exploited ~ 250 TWh/year ~ 55 GW installed capacity
technical – economic ~ 450 TWh/year ~ 100 GW installed capacity
Perspectives
• multipurpose plants (electricity production combined with drinking water supply systems, waste water treatment plants, irrigation channels)
• low-head and very low head plants. It is estimated that 1 to 1.5 GW can be installed in Europe using existing dams, weirs, irrigation infrastructures etc, with a very low environmental impact as the infrastructure already exists
