HYDROPOWER HIGHLIGHTS • The global weighted-average LCOE of newly commissionedhydropowerprojectsin2019 was USD 0.047/kWh, 6% higher than the USD 0.045/kWh recorded in 2018 and 27% higher than the projects commissioned in 2010 (Figure 5.1). • Despite this increase in the LCOE, nearly nine- tenths of the capacity commissioned in 2019 had an LCOE lower than the cheapest new fossil fuel-fired cost option. • The increase in LCOE since 2010 has been driven by rising installed costs, notably in Asia, which have been driven by the increased number of projects with more expensive development conditions compared to earlier projects. This is likely due to an increase in projects in locations with more challenging site conditions. • In 2019, the global weighted-average total installed cost of newly commissioned hydropower projects increased to USD 1704/kW, 17% higher than in in 2018. This increase is explained by the lower share of deployment occurring in China (3.8 GW in 2019) and the higher share of installed capacity deployment in other countries/regions with higher average installed costs. In Brazil, for example, 4.6 GW was added in 2019, while there was also a higher share of deployment in Africa and Other Asia in 2019 compared to 2018 – all locations with higher than average installed costs. • Between 2010 and 2019, the global weighted- average capacity factor for hydropower projects commissioned varied between 44% – in 2010 – and a high of 51% in 2015. For projects commissioned in 2019, it was 48%.
