Datasets

This dataset provide updates to some of the key metrics included in the 2017 Hydropower Market Report. The data represents the quantitative baseline on the distribution, capabilities, and status of hydropower and pumped storage hydropower in the United States revealed in the Hydropower Market Report (2018 updates). EIA form 920/921/923 (http://www.eia.gov/electricity/data/eia923/) is the primary sources of derived data. The […]

This dataset represents the quantitative baseline on the international distribution, capabilities, and status of hydropower and pumped storage hydropower in the 2017 Hydropower Market Report. EIA International Statistics is the primary sources of derived data for figures stated in the report.

Hydropower is a key contributor to the US renewable energy portfolio due to the diverse benefits it provides to the electric power system. Ensuring the sustainable operation of existing hydropower facilities is of great importance to the US renewable energy portfolio and the reliability of the electricity grid. As directed by Congress in Section 9505 […]

The U.S. hydropower fleet has been providing clean, reliable power for more than a hundred years. However, no systematic documentation exists of the U.S. fleet and the trends influencing it in recent years. This first-ever Hydropower Market Report seeks to fill this gap and provide industry and policy makers with a quantitative baseline on the […]

This dataset is a summary of hydropower potential data (high-energy intensity stream-reaches and new potential areas for hydropower development) and environmental attributes aggregated to HUC10 watersheds for the Conterminous United States. The New Stream-reach Development Resource Assessment (NSD) uses an innovative geographic approach to analyze the potential for new hydropower development in US stream segments that […]

This dataset provides hydropower potential data (high-energy intensity stream-reaches and new potential areas for hydropower development) and environmental attributes in stream segments that do not currently have hydroelectric facilities in the California Region 18 HUC. The data is aggregated to HUC10 watersheds.

This dataset provides hydropower potential data (high-energy intensity stream-reaches and new potential areas for hydropower development) and environmental attributes in stream segments that do not currently have hydroelectric facilities in the Pacific Northwest Region 17 HUC. The data is aggregated to HUC10 watersheds.
