Cover Story: Hydropower is one of the branches belonging to renewable energy sources. At a time when we are moving away from fossil fuels to reduce the harmful impact on the environment and slow down climate change, companies are turning their attention to hydro energy. The development of hydropower may increase access to energy in countries with energy poverty. If there is unlimited access to water, hydropower can develop, and companies and countries can reap economic and climate benefits. Hydropower production is an opportunity for developing countries because investments contribute to the development of the economy, but at the same time, it is important to remember the impact of large investments on the environment and local communities. In developed countries, investments in the development of hydropower will allow for faster achievement of a low- or zero-emission economy. View this paper
