Small Hydropower Market Size is Expected to Reach 214 GW by 2026 at CAGR of 3.06%
Pune, India, March 08, 2023 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- The number of small hydropower projects is expected to increase, thus favoring growth in the global small hydropower market. Fortune Business Insights in a new report, titled "Small Hydropower: Global Market Analysis, Insights, and Forecast, 2019-2026" predicts that the market is projected to expand at a CAGR of 3.06%. As per the report, the global market for small hydropower installed 170 GW in 2018 and is expected to cross 214GW by 2026. Small hydropower is a clean and renewable source of energy. It is a reliable, low-cost, and has better capacity than large hydropower systems. As per recent research studies, currently there are about 83,000 small hydropower dams worldwide.
Increasing industrialization in BRIC nations, governments are focusing on remote areas to efficiently supply electricity. Owing to the unavailability of grids in such areas, the demand for small hydropower generators is likely to increase. This will further impact the small hydropower market demand. Moreover, small hydropower plants are mainly suitable in areas with poor grid connectivity. Small hydropower or SHP generates electricity at low prices than other off-grid technologies. SHP is highly flexible and easily adaptable to several infrastructural and geographical circumstances. Enabled by this, the small hydropower market growth is expected to increase in the foreseeable future.

Asia Pacific to Hold a Lion's Share Owing to Continuous Developments by China
From a geographical standpoint, the small hydropower market in Asia Pacific is expected to dominate the global SHP market through the forecast years. The rising developments made by the Chinese government for the construction of small hydropower plants. "As per installed capacity, Pacific region accounts for the lowest share of SHP, whereas Asia holds the maximum share of SHP. Together, Asia Pacific covers over 65% of the installed capacity of small hydropower," stated a lead analyst at Fortune Business insights.
The market in India is likely to witness growth between 2018 and 2026. Government initiatives such as Rajiv Gandhi Grameen Vidyutikaran Yojana and SHP Programme by Ministry of New and Renewable Energy (MNRE) are expected to expand the small hydropower market size. Rajiv Gandhi Grameen Vidyutikaran Yojana promotes utilization of renewable energy sources and electrification in rural areas, whereas SHP Programme by Ministry of New and Renewable Energy (MNRE) encourages small hydropower development.
The small hydropower market in Europe is anticipated to grow considerably over the projected horizon. Europe accounts for over 45% of the installed capacity of SHP. The rising trend of adopting renewable technologies is contributing to the growth of the market in this region. In addition to this, better resource availability is another factor stimulating growth in the market in Europe.
Following Europe, Latin America and North America are third and fourth leading regions in the market. The U.S. had over 50% of the installed capacity of SHP, however, currently, it is stagnant.
