The global

certification label

for sustainable

hydropower

The Hydropower Sustainability Standard is the

global certication scheme that provides minimum

sustainability expectations for hydropower projects,

using up-to date, industry-leading guidance.

Hydropower developers and operators can now gain

international recognition for their environmental, social

and governance performance by certifying their projects

against the Standard.

Certify your project now to:

• Unlock green nance for your project

• Enhance your social licence to operate

• Align your project with sector leading environmental

and social safeguards
