Call for participants/ Career-up Program ”Evaluation and utilization of rural resource through case study of small hydroelectric generation” (Deadline: July 27th)

 

Small hydroelectric generation will be promising method for local energy generation because we have a lot of rivers in mountainous area. However, we can not use the water freely there is water right in each river, traditional river-managing system.  We will discuss on the relationship between local energy resource and traditional managing system of such resource.
