Abstract

This study provides a comprehensive overview of hydropower technology, tracing its historical evolution from ancient applications to modern developments. As the most established form of renewable energy, hydropower has significantly contributed to global energy demands. The chapter discusses the origins of hydropower in ancient civilizations, the transition to electricity generation in the late 19th century, and the massive growth of large dam constructions in the 20th century. Recent trends emphasize environmental considerations, leading to a focus on sustainable practices, innovative technologies, and smaller-scale systems such as run-of-the-river hydropower. The manuscript also highlights challenges, such as balancing energy production with ecological sustainability, and underscores the importance of community engagement and regulatory frameworks. Ultimately, the text advocates for the modernization of existing facilities and the integration of hydropower with other renewable energy sources to enhance sustainability and contribute to a resilient energy future.
