94 N NOTES In past editions of this report, small-scale hydro data were reported separately from total hydro in reference tables for a variety of reasons: (1) the relatively large scale of large hydropower significantly exceeds all other renewable capacity combined and would mask the dynamic growth in capacity of small-scale hydro and other renewables if all were counted together; (2) small-scale hydro is reported separately by a number of countries and is sometimes treated differently in terms of planning or national support policies; and (3) the tech- nical, economic, social, and environmental challenges often differ by scale. As a result, small-scale hydro was reported separately in the interest of capturing as rich from lack of statistics which, combined with inconsistent definitions across countries (for example, “small-scale” in Sweden is ≤ 1.5 MW; Norway ≤ 10 MW; India ≤ 25 MW; Brazil and the United States < 30 MW; Canada and China ≤ 50 MW), makes it difficult to derive reliable global data. Thus, global data for small-scale hydro are no longer reported separately in this report, although where available, national data are included in the text. Dynamic growth of non-hydro renewables is shown 5. Total hydro vs. small- and large-scale hydro. a picture as possible of renewables development. Since 2005, however, small-scale hydro reporting has suffered by presenting data with and without all hydropower, but where appropriate we continue to highlight where policy frameworks and other developments distinguish between small- and large-scale hydro. Hydropower statistics are not provided according to category of plant (run-of-river, reservoir, in-stream) due to lack of data. NOTE ON FURTHER INFORMATION AND SOURCES OF DATA There has generally been no single source of information for any fact globally, as most existing sources report only on developed (OECD) countries or on regional or national levels, such as Europe or the United States, although global sources have emerged in recent years for wind power, solar PV, solar water heating, and biofuels. Some global aggregates must be built from the bottom up, adding or aggregating individual country information. Very little material exists that covers developing countries as a group. Data for developing countries is often some years older than data for developed countries, and thus extrapolations to the present must be made from older data, based on assumed and historical growth rates. More precise annual increments to capacity are generally available only for wind, solar PV, and solar hot water. This 2011 report edition follows five previous editions in 2005, 2006, 2007, 2009, and 2010. The knowledge base of information used to produce these reports continues to expand, and readers are directed to the previous report editions for historical details and elaborations that have formed the foundation for the present report. Most figures of global capacity, growth, and investment portrayed in this report are not exact, but are approximate to two significant digits. Where necessary, triangulation of conflicting, partial, or older information is made using assumptions and growth trends. Each edition draws from hundreds of published references, plus a variety of electronic newsletters, numerous unpublished submis- sions from contributors, personal communications, and Web sites.
