Sector Information

Useful information about the hydropower sectors in the EU and the five target countries can be found here.

Handbook


The HYPOSO Handbook is not only a product of the HYPOSO project but at the same time a true product of European expertise and collegial cooperation.

In addition to information on the history and on the application areas of small hydropower, this handbook shows and describes various technical solutions for the small hydropower sector. Valuable information on planning and financing models complete this book.

Special thanks go to the Horizon 2020 project "Hydropower Europe" for facilitating the contact with the expert Prof. Cécile Münch-Alligné, who also represents the Horizon 2020 project "XFLEX Hydro". Valuable input on fish-friendly concepts came from the Horizon 2020 project "FIThydro", represented by Lea Berg and Prof. Peter Rutschmann. Information on the latest opportunities in hidden hydro as well as turbine technology was supported by Vincent Denis, who is associated with EU projects as an evaluator.

     

 

Stakeholder lists


Bringing together stakeholders from the same sector with colleagues from other countries is vital to enhance the sector. The HYPOSO project partners work together to map as many stakeholders in the EU and the target countries as possible to facilitate an overview about the hydropower landscape in these regions.
