The environmental damage caused by hydropower schemes has become increasingly apparent over the last decade or so. Damage has been caused by both large scale and small (<10 MW) hydropower schemes, as impacts are not necessarily size related. According to the World Commission on Dams (WCD), in the case of large dams the

For example, a 6-foot wide stream with an average depth of 1.5 feet would yield a cross section area of 9 square feet. STEP 3: Measure the Speed. A good way to measure speed is to mark off about a 10-foot length of the stream that includes the point where you measured the cross section.
Hydropower is based on the renewable energy source of the hydrological cycle, which is powered by solar energy, so it obviously acts as a natural source of energy [17]. Because the hydrological cycle is perpetual, it is considered a sustainable energy source, according to the standard denition. Hydropower frameworks are.

Global hydropower capacity is set to increase by 17%, or 230 GW, between 2021 and 2030. However, net capacity additions over this period are forecast to decrease by 23% compared with the previous decade. The contraction results from slowdowns in the development of projects in China, Latin America and Europe. However, increasing
Hydroelectricity. The Three Gorges Dam in Central China is the world''s largest power-producing facility of any kind. Hydroelectricity, or hydroelectric power, is electricity generated from hydropower (water power). Hydropower supplies one sixth of the world''s electricity, almost 4,500 TWh in 2020, which is more than all other renewable sources
Hydropower is by far the most significant renewable resource of electricity exploited to date. According to the International Energy Agency''s (IEA''s) ''World Energy Outlook 2013'',

Modern hydroelectric plants have a capacity from a few hundred watts to nearly 20,000 MW. They are classified based on the effective "head" of water, the type of turbine used, the capacity, the location, and the type of dam. The most common classification is based on the low, medium, and high "heads.".
