Small Hydro Power Plants

Published on 21. December 2010., Uncategorized

The energy potential of low water flow streams suitable for constructed of small hydro power plants (SHPP), amounts to 0.4 million toe or 3% of total renewable energy potential in Serbia.

By using the total energy potential of SHPP, it is possible meet 4.7 % of total power production in the Republic of Serbia (34 400 GWh/year in 2006) and around 15% of the current power production in hydro power plants (10 900 GWh/year).

By fully utilizing the energy potential of small hydro power plants, it is possible to produce around 4.7% of the total electrictricity in the Republic of Serbia (34.400 GWh per annum achieved in 2006) and around 15% of the current electricity
