HYPOSO

Hydropower is the backbone of Europe’s renewable electricity system. Already established in Europe, there is room for the hydropower market to flourish in other parts of the world. The EU-funded HYPOSO project aims at supporting the European hydropower industry while fostering a sustainable development in selected target countries in Africa and Latin America, namely Bolivia, Colombia, Ecuador, Cameroon and Uganda. The HYPOSO objectives will be achieved by a combination of tools, i.e. thorough market analyses, looking into unused hydropower potentials (in a GIS Map), political and legislative frameworks, financing hydropower in a smart way, capacity building, replicable business case studies and by bringing together representatives of the European hydropower industry and their counterparts and politicians from these five countries.
