| description |
The main aim of this World Bank-ESMAP
project has been to pave the way for picohydro to become
accessible to low-income households in Ecuador, with the
view to replicating the process in the Andean region and
other developing countries. This has been done through five
main activities: (1) assessing the main experiences in
picohydro technology and market developments, looking
particularly at Vietnam and the Philippines1; (2) reviewing
the existing use of microhydro in five Andean countries2 and
assessing their potential picohydro market; (3) establishing
31 pilot picohydro projects in two provinces of Ecuador with
full participation of the end users in local communities;
(4) encouraging a sustainable local infrastructure for
supporting picohydro technology in Ecuador through training
local technicians and bringing local dealers forward to
consider picohydro as a business venture; and (5) conducting
a rapid rural appraisal in the communities before and after
the installation of the picohydro pilots to consider the
technological and social impacts in the Ecuadoran situation. |
