U.S. Small Hydropower Market Report Highlights
- The civil construction segment held the dominant position in the market, with the largest revenue share of 32.5% in 2024. Civil construction plays a crucial role in developing small hydropower projects, as it encompasses essential structures such as weirs and dams that guide water to turbines and enhance water head levels.
- The up-to-1 MW capacity segment led the market and accounted for the largest revenue share of 57.6% in 2024, driven by the increasing demand for decentralized energy solutions, particularly in rural areas.
- The mini hydropower (101 kW – 10 MW) segment dominated the market and accounted for the largest revenue share of 63.9% in 2024, driven by its capability to serve larger energy demands while still being more environmentally friendly than traditional large-scale hydroelectric projects.
- Micro hydropower (100 kW) is expected to grow at a CAGR of 3.3% over the forecast period, owing to the increasing demand for decentralized energy solutions, particularly in remote and rural areas.
