The following two lists rank the 200 largest conventional hydroelectric power stations that have an installed electric power generation capacity of at least 1,000 MW and also 17 plants under construction with planned capacity of at least 1,000 MW.
Non-renewable power stations are those that run on coal, fuel oils, nuclear fuel, natural gas, oil shale and peat, while renewable power stations run on fuel sources such as biomass, geothermal heat, hydro, solar energy, solar heat, tides and wind. Only the most significant fuel source is listed for power stations that run on multiple sources.
In 2013 the ICSHP and UNIDO published the World Small Hydro Power Development Report. According to Li Yong, Director-General of UNIDO, the report was "a world first compilation of global small hydropower data". [10] The report assessed small hydro power development in 149 countries across 20 regions from over 60 different authors. [11]
It also provides 16 open data tools which track regional and global electricity transitions and coal mine methane emissions standards.
