---With
the latest development at home and abroad, especially in
Southeast Asian developing countries, HRC set up a soft-science
fund for research, and formed a research group for the project
in 2003. The report (around 80,000 Chinese characters) on
the development and major issues of small hydro power in
Southeast Asia has been completed recently.
While focusing on Southeast Asia
developing countries, it also refers to some developed countries
in the same area and some other countries. The report mainly
covers: 1) The actual conditions, exploitation and prospect
of small hydro resource; 2) The policies, measures and implementation
result in developing small hydro power, research on its
validity and experience; 3) Analysis on the result of the
macro & micro benefit from the small hydro power both
in theory and practice; 4) Research on the involvement status
of private capital in small hydro power exploitation and
its comparison between China and other countries.
The aim of the report is to provide
an overall, detailed, objective, profound, prospective and
independent reference for SHP decision makers in China and
elsewhere in the world.(2004-10-22)
