Separate policy sought for small hydropower projects

1066 Shimla, February 25 Small hydropower developers are pushing for a separate policy for projects up to 25 MW capacity. They have taken up the matter with the Union Ministry of Power and the Union Ministry of New and Renewable Energy. “The scale, dimensions and issues of small hydropower projects are totally different from large hydropower projects. So, it is important to have a separate policy governing and regulating small hydropower projects,” said Arun Kumar, vice-president of the Federation of Indian Small Hydropower developers. The federation, a representative body of small hydropower developers from across the country, was formed last year to voice their concerns at the highest level. Big hydropower players already have an association called the Forum of Hydropower Producers. “The objective of the forum is to make hydropower development sustainable and ensure the economic growth of the state in the long run,” said forum’s secretary-general CM Walia.
