Description
The Hydropower Sustainability Assessment Protocol is initiated and organized by the International Hydropower Association (IHA). It assesses the sustainability of hydropower projects for the whole life cycle of hydropower projects. As a guiding standard for the sustainability of hydropower projects, it is being promoted and applied worldwide. In order to further enhance the applicability of the evaluation standard in countries and regions with different levels of economic development, different river basin characteristics and project objectives, it is necessary for the standard to be improved and optimized continuously. CISPDR,as one of the members of IHA, will provide technical support for the Hydropower Sustainability Assessment protocol prepared by the International Hydropower Association (IHA), promote the sustainable development of hydropower , contribute to achieve the global strategic goals of "carbon peak" and "carbon neutrality", jointly cope with the challenges of global climate change. We will discuss specific technical cooperation contents with IHA about the improvement of sustainability assessment standard for hydropower projects with flood control as its main task.
Improvement of the relevant assessment standard of the Hydropower Sustainability Assessment Protocol(IHA) for hydropower project with flood control as its main task.
International Hydropower Association（IHA） The International Hydropower Association (IHA) is a non-governmental organization ，founded by international hydropower progamme of UNESCO in 1995,It aims to enhance and promote the sustainable hydropower development .Its work focuses on technical, environmental, social and policy making which are closely related to the development process in the hydropower industry. The headquarter of IHA is in London, UK.It now has members from more than 80 countries in the world.CISPDR is one of its important members in China. IHA maintains close relation with United Nations, World Bank, World Energy Council,World water Council,ICOLD and other renowned international organizations The Hydropower Sustainability Assessment Protocol ,which is initiated and organized by IHA, reflects the common call for sustainable hydropower development in the world .
