A major problem for sustainable development in the Amazon is the difficulty of supplying electric power to isolated communities,
which represent a considerable share of the population. This problem has been a major obstacle to productive activities (especially
extractive and agricultural) in such communities, thus significantly contributing to rural drift and creating social problems
in larger cities. In that case, one way to supply electric power would be to use the huge network of small rivers in the region
by implementing Micro Hydroelectric Power Plants (MHPs). However, this type of hydropower project requires a set of technical
assessments in order to obtain better value for its cost-effectiveness from the perspective of sustainable development. Thus,
based on a survey of energy demand and the local hydrological and topographical characteristics, two possible MHP designs
for the hydrological site under analysis were suggested. Assessments of hydropower, economic and environmental aspects were
developed. MHP designs were compared with the diesel generator design of the community under focus. Comparison showed that
the MHP designs are feasible in terms of energy to meet local demand; economically, they are more feasible than the diesel
generator and are environmentally sustainable, mainly because such designs involve low-head, run-of-river MHPs and the flooded
areas were simulated and are not larger than 0.02 km2. Therefore, the information provided by these assessments constitutes important data, serving as subsidies for MHP implementation
projects, which shall contribute to sustainable development in the region. 相似文献
