The Small Hydropower (SHP) Market Size operates within the renewable energy sector through installations that produce up to 10 MW by converting water flow into electrical power. Small hydropower systems create fewer environmental impacts because they need less space and can operate in remote areas, which causes minimal harm to the environment compared to large-scale hydroelectric facilities.

The Small Hydropower (SHP) Market Size operates within the renewable energy sector through installations that produce up to 10 MW by converting water flow into electrical power. Small hydropower systems create fewer environmental impacts because they need less space and can operate in remote areas, which causes minimal harm to the environment compared to large-scale hydroelectric facilities. The market growth receives support from three main elements, which include rural electrification requirements, worldwide clean energy needs, and climate change concerns about greenhouse gas emissions.
