Are you a pico, micro, or mini hydro fabricator looking for video tutorials?
Or perhaps the designer of an off-grid energy program, looking for best-practices for micro hydro?
Are you a funding agency seeking case studies on community-based micro hydro?
Are you a local practitioners' association wanting to share your work with a wider audience?
Maybe you are a civil society organization searching for hands-on experts or micro hydro data?
If so and otherwise, we have just the tool for you -- the Micro/Mini Hydropower Library (MHL)! The library is a result of HPNET partnering with energypedia, a platform for collaborative exchange on renewable energy, to address HPNET members' request for an online, peer-to-peer knowledge exchange portal.
