Russia ranks second in the world for undeveloped hydropower resources, with only 19% of it currently utilised. However, hydropower lies at the core of the global energy transition.
A large proportion of Russian hydropower is rooted in the history of the country. Today, hydropower has transformed into a sustainable legacy.
