(2023). Inventory of visualized hydropower plants in the upper Indus basin [Data set]. ICIMOD, Utrecht University. https://doi.org/10.26066/RDS.1973705 This database was compiled under WP-2 of the SustainIndus project between August 2019 and August 2021 to consolidate publicly available information on hydropower projects in various stages of development in the upper Indus basin in national and global datasets. The database is developed with the objective of quantifying and characterizing the visualised hydropower potential which is defined as the total potential of existing and future hydropower plants that are have been envisioned in publicly available national documents. Future hydropower plants entail plants that may be under construction, planned plants in other stages of development or raw plants that have been shortlisted by government studies but may not have clarity on if and when they will materialize. The effort manually validated the quality of four parameters: geo-reference (latitude-longitude), development status, plant capacity and annual energy generation. Many other plant parameters found in the review have also been consolidated for future use here. This inventory shows the status of hydropower development in the upper Indus based on national plans in the riparian countries. It provides a basis for evaluating sustainability of hydropower development plans and policies. http://rds.icimod.org:8080/geonetwork/srv/api/records/4e49cc46-a59e-4917-99c5-eea2bc1378f0/attachments/VisualizePotentialSnippet.jpg http://rds.icimod.org:8080/geonetwork/srv/api/records/4e49cc46-a59e-4917-99c5-eea2bc1378f0/attachments/VisualizePotentialSnippet.jpg future hydropower potential sustainable hydropower historical hydrology theoretical potential technical potential financial potential sustainable potential climate change Upper Indus Afghanistan India Pakistan Kabul Swat Indus Main Jhelum Chenab Ravi Beas Satluj Creative Commons Attribution 4.0 International (CC BY 4.0) eng geoscientificInformation 67.5485 82.4489 30.3234 37.0838 2019-08-01 2021-08-31 ICIMOD 977-1-5275222 metadata@icimod.org http://geoapps.icimod.org/IKPP/SustaIndus WWW:LINK-1.0-http--link Indus Knowledge Partnership Platform (IKPP) The IKPP platform consolidates various dataset available for the Indus basin on hydrology, climate change, renewable energy resources and water-energy-food security. https://www.sustaindus.org/about-us/sustaindus-project-structure/work-package-2-the-indus-basin-water-energy-nexus WWW:LINK-1.0-http--link SustainIndus
