Aspects réglementaires de la petite hydroélectricité
Law aspects of small hydropower
Direction de l'Eau du ministère de l'Aménagement du territoire et de l'Environnement
Abstract
The 1992 water act (french law of January 3, 1992) appreciably madifies the prescribed framework proceeding from the 1919 law on use of hydroelectric power. A single procedure has been made for one application of both 1919 & 1992 laws. The master water development and management plans ("SDAGE": schémas directeurs d'aménagement et de gestion des eaux) fixed the basic trends of balanced management of the water resource at basin catchment area level. The aim of the ministry is to conciliate how to modernize a renewable energy and the balanced management of the water resource, avoiding, as possible, building new dams.
