Book Description
The preliminary inventory and analysis procedures provide a comprehensive assessment of the undeveloped hydroelectric power potential in the US and determines which sites merit more thorough investigation. Over 5400 existing structures have been identified as having the physical potential to add hydropower plants or increase hydropower output thereby increasing our present hydropower capacity from a total of 64,000 MW to 158,000 MW and our energy from 280,000 GWH to 503,000 GWH. While the physical potential for this increase is clearly available, some of these projects will undoubtedly not satisfy more-detailed economic analysis as well as the institutional and environmental criteria which will be imposed upon them. Summary tables include estimates of the potential capacity and energy at each site in the inventory. In some cases, individual projects may be site alternatives to others in the same general location, when only one can be considered for hydropower development. The number of sites per state is identified, but specific information is included for only the sites in Alaska, Idaho, Oregon, and Washington in this first volume.

Book Description
The Preliminary Inventory of Hydropower Resources (PIHR) a preliminary product of the National Hydropower Study (NHS), was published in six (6) volumes (regions) to facilitate reproduction and distribution. The PIHR contains general as well as site-specific information on our nation's hydroelectric power potential. It gives estimates of existing, incremental and undeveloped hydropower potential by state and region and furthermore, breaks these categories down into size ranges of small-scale (.05-15 MW) intermediate (15-25 MW) and large-scale (greater than 25MW) sites. Because the inventory is a preliminary product of the NHS, it may be suspended at some future date. Conservative assumptions have been made in the screening and analysis process to avoid eliminating any potentially feasible sites. The current summary tables provide the best estimated to date, but to some degree, may overstate the actual capacity and energy which could be developed.
