and if good f<strong>in</strong>anc<strong>in</strong>g possibilities are available, small-scale hydropower is an appropriatealternative to assist rural electrification, which hopefully will lead to development andimproved standard of liv<strong>in</strong>g. If this method should be practically implemented, it is firstof all <strong>in</strong>tended to act as basic data <strong>for</strong> decision makers <strong>in</strong> develop<strong>in</strong>g countries, such asthe Rural Electrification Agency, aid organizations and private <strong>in</strong>vestors.66
