Abstract

Hydropower plants with an installed capacity of less than 10 MW are widely considered as small hydropower (SHP) in Turkey. There are currently 371 SHPs in operation as of 31 December 2021. Of these, 14 are operated by the DSI and 357 are operated by the private sector; and the installed capacity of the operating SHPs is 1.756,69 MW, their total generation potential is 6.643,44 GWh/year. Moreover, 12 SHPs are under construction. In addition, 625 SHP projects of 2.645,56 installed capacities and of 8.728,460 GWh/year generations potential were cancelled. Regionally, 34.50 % of SHPs (128 SHP) is located in the Black Sea Region of Turkey. 20.75 % of them (77 SHP) is located in the Mediterranean Region; 16.71 % (62 SHP) in the Eastern Anatolia Region; 12.94 % (48 SHP) in the Central Anatolia Region; 8.09 % (30 SHP) in the Marmara Region; 6.2% (23 SHP) in the Aegean Region and 0.08 % in the South-East Region. This article intends to discuss SHP’s in 2021 of Turkey as a whole and examine the place and importance of SHP’s in the sector.
