  3. Hydro Generation, by Country (2889 TWh in 2005) Source: IEA, 2006

  4. Growth in Electricity Generation (TWh) Hydropower Wind + Biomass + geothermal + solar

  5. Growth in Electricity Generation (TWh) Fossil Fuels Hydropower Wind + Biomass + geothermal + solar

  6. World’s realistic potential developed: ~ 1/3 Current hydro production: 2889 TWh/y Realistic potential production: ~ 8600 TWh/y 75% 69% 22% 7% 33% ~70% “For non-OECD countries, hydroelectric plants produced 1546 TWh or 21.1% of total gross production reported in 2004. This represents a 9.8% increase over the previous year. Hydro production reported by non-OECD countries has increased at an annual average rate of 4.7% since 1973.” – IEA Electricity Information, 2006 Source: World Atlas of Hydropower & Dams, 2002

  7. Top 10 reasons for hydropower Hydropower is a renewable source of energy Hydropower supports the development of other renewables Hydropower fosters energy security and price stability Hydropower contributes to fresh water storage Hydropower improves electric grid stability and reliability Hydropower helps fight climate change Hydropower can reduce pollution Hydropower makes a significant contribution to development Hydropower means clean, affordable power Hydropower is a key tool for sustainable development

  8. Hydropower contributes to grid stability and stores energy Hydropower’s crucial role in system integration and promotion of other renewable energies

  9. International Hydropower Association (IHA) • Non-governmental mutual association of organizations and professionals working or studying in the hydropower sector. • Founded in 1995, under the auspices of UNESCO, to advance knowledge on all aspects of hydropower and to promote good practice. • Mission: Advancing Sustainable Hydropower • Vision: Advancing hydropower’s role in meeting the world’s water and energy needs by: • Championing continuous improvement and sustainable practices • Building consensus through strong partnerships with other stakeholders • Driving initiatives to increase the contribution of the renewables sector, especially hydropower.

  10. IHA Membership 20 Sponsors, total of 107 Corporate Members

  11. IHA Strategic Plan • 2007-2009 Priorities to Create and Deliver Value IHA Central Office & Governance Priorities to Create and Deliver Value Membership CORE OBJECTIVES • Influence policy • Advance shared values through co-operation and alliances • Establish specific programmes to advance sustainable hydropower • Create an effective communications strategy (inc. empowerment of ambassadors) HydropowerFinancing IHA Congress External Events & Communications Water, Energy & Climate Change Sustainability standard • Increase financial resources (sources and scale) • Broaden membership base • Structure for effective operational performance

  12. Addressing the Role of Hydropower in International Water Policy Represent hydropower at the Fifth World Water Forum, Istanbul March 2009 Coordinate topic and sessions at the World Water Forum Topic Water for Energy, Energy for Water IHA Contribution to the World Water Development Report

  13. Ensuring Hydro’s role in Renewable Energy Policy Participating at key renewable energy policy meetings Key energy policy conferences Most recent: 2008 Washington International Renewable Energy Conference (WIREC) Global Energy Assessment Lead author in the Global Energy Assessment report International Renewable Energy Alliance (IREA) Working in partnership with other renewable energy technologies Members are: International Hydropower Association, International Geothermal Association, World Wind Energy Association, International Solar Energy Association

  14. Renewables 2004, Bonn

  15. Hydropower and Climate Change Addressing the GHG Status of Freshwater Reservoirs: UNESCO / IHA Greenhouse Gas Project Objectives: To develop measurement guidance for net GHG measurements To develop guidance and assessment tools for mitigation of GHG emissions due to the construction of a freshwater reservoir in tropical and sub-tropical regions To develop predictive modelling tools in order to quantify the net GHG emission from a freshwater reservoir Clean Development Mechanism Executive Board is waiting for the expert community, including the UNESCO / IHA Greenhouse Gas Initiative, to conclude its work before admitting new or changed hydropower related methodologies.

  16. Hydropower and Climate Change Addressing the Possible Role and Contribution of Hydropower to the Mitigation of Climate Change Collaborating with the CDM Methodologies Panel on a hydro-specific methodology to quantify carbon offsets Working to ensure a level playing field for hydropower projects in the CDM, with a focus on the European Trading System ETS (Linking Directive) Contributing to the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) Contributing to IPCC National Greenhouse Gas Inventory Initiative

  17. Hydropower Markets and Investment Clean Development Mechanism Ensuring that all forms of hydropower are included in renewable energy policies and institutions Dialogue with the Clean Development Mechanism Executive Board Working towards a hydropower sustainability standard - which can help access finance and comply with regulations Working on the bankability of hydropower projects Studies and surveys on financing models Asian Development Bank & the World Bank: observers to IHA Board Equator banks represented in Hydropower Sustainability Assessment Forum Asset value Working on Water, Energy and Climate Policy to ensure the positive image/perception of the role of hydropower Statistics Working with members to build a database on hydropower deployment and financing to ensure adequate representation of hydropower in policy coverage and decision-making

  18. IHA Sustainability Initiative Economy Environment Sustainability Society Striking a balance on a foundation of sound technology

  19. IHA Sustainability Guidelines Sustainability Assessment Protocol Sustainable Hydro Website UNESCO/IHA Excellence Award Sustainability Standard

  20. IHA Sustainability Guidelines and Protocol Adopted in 2004 Adopted in 2006

  21. Sustainability Assessment Protocol Training Workshops Several IHA Sustainability training workshops have already taken place worldwide, e.g. in Turkey, USA, Canada, Brazil (2007-2008)

  22. Hydropower Sustainability Assessment Forum Goal Within a two-year period, establish a broadly endorsed sustainability assessment tool to measure and guide performance in the hydropower sector. Output 1. to deliver an enhanced Protocol that can be endorsed by a range of key stakeholder organizations, and 2. to make recommendations on pathways towards a sustainability standard for the hydropower sector.
