Global Hydropower Day
Global Hydropower Day on 11 October 2025 will celebrate the positive impacts of sustainable hydropower on people and communities around the world.
Spearheaded by the International Hydropower Association (IHA), with support from a coalition of developers, operators, manufacturers and industry associations around the world, this day will shine a light on the power that can be harnessed with sustainable hydropower.
Hydropower is the oldest form of renewable energy and has a key role to play alongside all forms of clean energy to push the world towards a net zero future.
Various videos, case studies, stories and more will be represented throughout the day, covering what can be achieved #WithHydropower.
How can you get involved this year?
A day in the life of hydropower
We will be featuring videos of a normal day in hydropower plants. Have you already made one? If so, we would love to share it.
Celebrating hydropower heroes
We will be producing a video from across the hydropower sector that celebrates one person from the company and their critical role that makes hydropower possible. Would you like to contribute?
This video will shine a light on the critical people within the sector that keep the lights on. Any role is welcome.
