1 GENERAL INFORMATION TRAINING PROGRAMME ON RENEWABLE ENERGY: MICRO HYDRO POWER FOR RURAL DEVELOPMENT IN ASEAN REGION held in cooperation of: The Government of the Republic of Indonesia, The ASEAN Foundation and The Non-Aligned Movement Centre for South-South Technical Cooperation (NAM CSSTC) Bandung, Indonesia, June

2 INTRODUCTION Renewable energy is energy which comes from natural resources such as sunlight, wind, rain, tides, and geothermal heat, which are renewable (naturally replenished). Climate change concerns, coupled with high oil prices, peak oil, and increasing government support, are driving increasing renewable energy legislation, incentives and commercialization. New government spending, regulation and policies helped the industry weather the global financial crisis better than many other sectors. According to a 2011 projection by the International Energy Agency, solar power generators may produce most of the world s electricity within 50 years, dramatically reducing the emissions of greenhouse gases that harm the environment.
