With a global focus on reducing carbon dioxide emissions, hydro power has come to the fore as an effective means of balancing other forms of electricity production from renewable sources (wind, photovoltaics and biomass). The role of hydropower in the modern mix of energy has led to favorable climatic conditions for development in the ...

Hydropower has come to be treated as synonymous with sustainable economic development by many in the development arena. This is despite the adverse ecological and sociological impacts being widely recognised by those outside of decision-making. The prevalence of this 'hydropower myth' simplifies the complex trade-offs involved within hydropower ...
