Annual energy production per hydropower plant is estimated by using the plant installed capacity and plants capacity factors. Latter is the ratio of plants annual produced energy to the total annual energy generated per country, based on data from IRENA (2018), IEA (2018) and UN (2016). Produced hydropower is aggregated for each country subject to hydropower generation.
