About the Sustainable
Hydropower Foundation
The Sustainable Hydropower Foundation is a proposed entity that would receive funding contributions to support population of the Sustainable Hydropower Website with example schemes. It would be a not-for-profit organization operating under the auspices of a group of international agencies who share the mission of the Foundation to advance sustainable hydropower through information, education and the availability of appropriate expertise.

The Foundation Governing Board would be determined by the Foundation partners - the IHA with other peak international non-industry bodies working in the water, energy and sustainable resource management sectors.

The Foundation would allow site visits to all nominated schemes to assess their suitability for inclusion on the site. Decisions on inclusion would be made by an independent Website Reference Panel appointed by the Foundation Governing Board.

Foundation Development Paths

There is considerable potential for further services of the Sustainable Hydropower Foundation to be developed over the longer term. These could include

  • educational packages such as presentation slides, e-Textbook and case studies, and various outreach programs;
  • support for new technologies and R&D;
  • expert consultant information database;
  • support for provision of expert consultants to new or existing developments.

Broadening of the scope of the Foundation will depend entirely on the enlistment of partners with vision, and creating a strong spirit of collaboration.
