Prospective Small Hydroelectric Power Sites along the Black Volta River

This study investigates the potential sites for Small Hydroelectric Power (SHP) generation along the course of the Black Volta River. The growing demand for clean and sustainable energy sources has led to renewed interest in harnessing hydropower resources. The objective of this research is to identify and assess suitable locations for SHP development, taking into consideration factors such as river morphology, flow characteristics, topography, and environmental impacts. By employing a systematic approach and utilizing geospatial analysis, the study aims to contribute valuable insights into the feasibility and viability of implementing SHP projects within this region. The outcomes of this research could provide a foundation for future decision-making processes regarding the sustainable utilization of hydroelectric potential along the Black Volta River while minimizing ecological and social implications.
