Annex 2: Small Scale Hydropower
Annex 2 on small scale hydropower updated, managed and improved its highly successful web-site
(www.small-hydro.com) which recently has attained 100,000 “hits” per month. It also organized a series of
well-attended workshops on small scale hydropower every year in conjunction with a major international conference.
The Annex will continue in phase 3 under the new leadership of ADEME.

Annex 7: Hydropower Competence Network
Annex 7 is the successor to Annex 5 on education and training. It has further developed the software for the sharing of
teaching materials over the Internet, and has set up links between universities in Japan, Norway, Thailand, Zambia, and
Brazil as test cases. Workshops have been held in developing countries to familiarize educators with the hydropower
competence network.
