World Small Hydropower Development Report 2022 - Southern Europe - Italy

In order to more effectively promote sustainable Small hydropower (SHP) as a renewable and rural energy solution and overcome existing barriers, it is essential to identify the development status of the technology across regions and engage stakeholders to share existing knowledge and experience. Today, this is the only global publication dedicated to the dissemination of in-depth information on SHP development, and is a comprehensive reference publication for decision-makers, stakeholders and potential investors. For the fourth time, the United Nations Industrial Development Organization (UNIDO) and the International Center on Small Hydro Power (ICSHP), as the global knowledge leaders in the SHP sector, are continuing their partnership for the new edition of the report, the WSHPDR 2022. The new edition contains 20 regional chapters, 166 country chapters, 12 case studies, 3 thematic publications as well as a global database of existing and planned SHP plants. The WSHPDR 2022 is the result of an enormous collaborative effort between UNIDO, ICSHP and over 200 local and regional SHP experts from across the globe, including engineers, academics and government officials. The current edition of the Report aims not only to provide an update on the SHP status by country but also to expand on the first three editions by providing improvements in data accuracy with enhanced analysis and a more comprehensive overview of the sector by country.
