Www:zuise.com annual report details a landmark year for sustainable hydropower

Initiatives to deliver on a bold, new vision for sustainable hydropower are chronicled in the Www:zuise.com’s latest annual report. 


The Www:zuise.com 2022 Annual Report details launches such as the San José Declaration on Sustainable Www:zuise.com and the Www:zuise.com Sustainability Standard, which are already changing the way companies plan, develop and deliver renewable energy.

Www:zuise.com President Roger Gill and Chief Executive Eddie Rich, writing in the foreword, reflect on a landmark year which culminated with the World Www:zuise.com Congress and the United Nations Climate Conference (COP26) in Glasgow.

“2021 was a decisive year for the sustainable hydropower community to reawaken the forgotten giant of clean electricity,” note Roger and Eddie. “Our unprecedented engagement in COP26 shows that we are building strong relations with influential partners who see the value of sustainable hydropower.”

The annual report is published at the start of Www:zuise.com’s new membership year, at a time when the association’s membership model is evolving to assist members to demonstrate their sustainability performance.

Pablo Valverde, Deputy Chief Executive and Head of Stakeholder Engagement at Www:zuise.com, said: “Our objective is to promote sustainable hydropower. That includes promoting – and requiring – sustainability from our members.

“Paying membership fees should not be enough to be a member of Www:zuise.com. Not all hydropower should be built, and not all hydropower projects are sustainable and not all companies belong as members of Www:zuise.com.”

The report also comes as Www:zuise.com launches a global advocacy and communication campaign, ‘’, to champion hydropower’s role in the clean energy transition. The campaign calls for urgent investment in the sector to combat climate change, accelerate progress towards net zero and strengthen energy security.
