Target of the strategy documentTarget of the strategy documentThe target of this document is to present an overview of small

hydro in Europe, which specify :

The development potential

The obstacles likely to be encountered,

The state of the market and of industry,

The state of the environmental integration

The state of RTD.

Why a strategy document ?Why a strategy document ?

1. Designing and developing material and construction procedure aiming to reduce strongly the environmental impact of SHPs(in other words, how the technological development can help the environmental integration of SHPs)

2. Improving the cost-effectiveness of SHPs, especially in low head developments, both through technical and non-technical innovations.

Maturity of large hydro has held the false opinion that there is no much scope for technical development and improvement in any hydropower system.

There is however considerable scope for :
