Development of hydropower projects in Asia, especially small and medium scale, has received significant interest over the past decade as important advantages for power system generation expansion are being recognized. Importantly, hydropower provides predictable long term energy cost, after the initial capital investment during construction is completed. As a source of renewable energy, hydropower offers lower carbon energy with the attendant global benefits while having no exposure to fuel pricing uncertainty. From the perspective of the power system, hydropower projects offer dynamic benefits such as frequency regulation, reserve capacity, and peaking capacity. If some storage can be provided there can be significant energy storage potential that can assist with the scheduling of other renewables such as wind and solar energy. Energy storage provides the opportunity to increase the value of renewables by converting non-scheduled generation from the off-peak to on-peak periods. Small hydro will often be distributed through a power system, which can provide some advantages in the cost and operation of the power transmission grid.
