even there is no specific higher damage <strong>of</strong> water ecology compared to small hp<br />
‣ small hp: <strong>in</strong> additon to the exist<strong>in</strong>g 4200 GWh another 4500 GWh ere<br />
expected to be generated by build<strong>in</strong>g new plants.<br />
Do we expect to build additional 2000 small hp plants lead<strong>in</strong>g to a<br />
high amount <strong>of</strong> impacted water bodies (backwater, reduced cont<strong>in</strong>uity)<br />
+ Result <strong>of</strong> Art.5 report: only few water bodies left with „near natural“ conditions;<br />
there is a specific stress to be used for small hp generation (à plann<strong>in</strong>g <strong>of</strong> „go“<br />
and „no go“ areas<br />
+ How we can ensure that exist<strong>in</strong>g plants are technically optimised /old<br />
