tMean annual energy production. The figures are not directly comparable because of reference to different time periods for inflow to the
reservoirs; from 2000 the period 1970-1999 ¡s used. 2Plans for not operational hydro power are continuously being reconsidered, and consequently
the potential hydro power will vary from year to year. 3lncludes "License granted" for the years before 1993. 4lncluded ¡n "Ucense
granted" or "under licensing" for the years before 2000.
