Africa has the most under-developed market so far with 92% of feasible sites unexploited.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Hydroelectricity is a very cost-effective technology already,&#8221; said Richard H. Jones, deputy executive director, IEA.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;However, new developments face tough financial challenges. Governments must create a favourable climate for industry investment when designing electricity markets,\u201d warned Jones.<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_8189\" style=\"width: 610px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-8189\" class=\"size-full wp-image-8189\" title=\"hoover dam creative commons wili_hybrid 400px\" src=\"http:\/\/www.climatechangenews.com\/files\/2012\/10\/hoover-dam-creative-commons-wili_hybrid-400px.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"600\" height=\"400\" srcset=\"https:\/\/cdn.climatechangenews.com\/files\/2012\/10\/hoover-dam-creative-commons-wili_hybrid-400px.jpg 600w, https:\/\/cdn.climatechangenews.com\/files\/2012\/10\/hoover-dam-creative-commons-wili_hybrid-400px-290x193.jpg 290w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 600px) 100vw, 600px\" \/><p id=\"caption-attachment-8189\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">The Hoover Dam has contributed to water shortage issues in downstream US States as well as across the border in Mexico. (Source: Creative Commons\/Wili Hybrid)<\/p><\/div>\n<p>Hydropower is already the largest renewable energy source globally with four times more capacity than wind power, according to figures from the REN21 industry group.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Large and small hydropower projects can improve access to modern energy services, alleviate poverty and foster social and economic development, especially for local communities&#8221; said Albert Geber de Melo, general-director of the Brazilian Electric Energy Research Centre (CEPEL).<\/p>\n<p>Hydropower accounts for approximately 90% of Brazil&#8217;s electricity, so its support for more investment in this form of electricity generation is no surprise.<\/p>\n<p>The government is currently investing in the multi-billion dollar Belo Monte dam project in the Amazon, despite heavy criticism from environmentalists and groups representing indigenous tribes.<\/p>\n<p>This is not a problem unique to Brazil &#8211; campaign groups are active around the world in opposition to big hydropower projects in the basis of the forests, land and people that they displace.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIf the IEA wants to tackle climate change and poverty, it needs to stop fixating on large-scale projects that only benefit big investors, and instead re-read its own 2010 World Energy Outlook which calls for decentralised renewable energy that can be owned by communities,\u201d said Pascoe Sabido, sustainable energy advisor with Friends of the Earth.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe IEA is predicting big emissions reductions from doubling hydroelectricity, but all the recent science shows that&#8217;s not the case,\u201d Sabido told RTCC.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cLarge dams are far from a carbon neutral source of electricity when you take into account the flooded forests that were previously sucking carbon out of the atmosphere. As they decompose, they release large quantities of methane which recent reports show could be up to 50 times worse for the climate than carbon dioxide.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Dams also affect the downstream water supply creating diplomatic tensions with countries further down river.<\/p>\n<p>Egypt depends almost entirely on the Nile for its water supplies and is currently in a dispute with Ethiopia over its proposal for a 6GW hydropower plant on the Nile.<\/p>\n<blockquote><p><strong>Related articles:<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><a title=\"Renewable energy has \u201ccome of age\u201d says IEA report\"
