Small power plant of Licq-Athérey (Pyrénées-Atlantiques, France). An 1895 hydroelectric plant near Telluride, Colorado.. Small hydro is the development of hydroelectric power on a scale suitable for local community and industry, or to contribute to distributed generation in a regional electricity grid. [1]
Micro hydro is a type of hydroelectric power that typically produces from 5 kW to 100 kW of electricity using the natural flow of water. Installations below 5 kW are called pico hydro . [ 1 ] These installations can provide power to an isolated home or small community, or are sometimes connected to electric power networks, particularly where ...
The levelized cost of electricity (LCOE) is a metric that attempts to compare the costs of different methods of electricity generation consistently. Though LCOE is often presented as the minimum constant price at which electricity must be sold to break even over the lifetime of the project, such a cost analysis requires assumptions about the value of various non-financial costs (environmental ...
The project developer is Country Energy (Pvt) Ltd, a subsidiary of Vallibel Power Erathna PLC, [2] which is one of the leading mini hydropower developers in Sri Lanka. [ 3 ] The development of the project was initiated in September 2002 with the investigation of the feasibility of the project and it was decided to develop the project with a ...
Sketch of the Power Plant. The developer of the project is Vallibel Power Erathna PLC [1] and the project is developed on a build, own and operate basis. The intention of the company is to generate 40 GWh [1] of green energy annually and to export it to the national electricity grid of the Ceylon Electricity Board which is the only authorised Institute for electricity transmission in Sri Lanka ...
The power station is owned and operated by the two Sri Lankan energy companies that developed the power station, over a twenty-months period, from January 2017 until October 2018. [1] The cost of construction is reported at US$8 million (USh29.6 billion). [1] The main contractor on this project was KSJ Construction of Sri Lanka. [3]
The estimated costs for the dam and power plant were approximately US$14 million. [10] The German Investment Corporation, a subsidiary of KfW, has provided US$11 million for construction of the power station, as well as US$13 million for the West Nile Electric Grid Extension and Rehabilitation Project.

Low-head hydro power refers to the development of hydroelectric power where the head is typically less than 20 metres, although precise definitions vary. [1] Head is the vertical height measured between the hydro intake water level and the water level at the point of discharge.
