Hydroelectricity is the term referring to electricity generated by hydropower; the production of electrical power through the use of the gravitational force of falling or flowing water. It is the most widely used form of renewable energy. Small hydro is the development of hydroelectric power on a scale serving a small community or industrial plant. The definition of a small hydro project varies, but a generating Installed Capacity of 1 to 10 megawatts (MW) is generally accepted, which aligns to the concept of distributed generation. In 2020, the market of small hydropower industry is almost monopolized by European and American producers, accounting for about 60% of the global market. The top three producers are Voith GmbH, GE and Andritz Hydro, which all come from European and American regions and account for more than 30% of the market share. But the Asia-Pacific region is the world's biggest consumer, accounting for about 60% of the market, compared with about 30% for Europe and America combined. The sharp drop in the growth rate of the consumer price of small hydropower in various countries shows that the price of small hydropower is close to its peak.
