- Run-Off the river Project
–Normal flow in a river which otherwise is un-utilised is used for generating power
–May require small storage facility
–Project based on stipulated dependability (90 %)
- Dam Storage based Projects
–releases of dam are passed through the generating units resulting in added benefits along with irrigation needs
–may cater as base load plant also
- Canal Based Projects
–utilises the drop (also sometimes called rapids) in a stretch of canal
–requires a diversion canal arrangement
- Pumped Storage Plants
–concept based on differential tariff structure
- peak time tariff and normal tariff
–Pumps water utilising power available (at lower tariff) during normal hours to a higher altitude
–utilising this storage, and generates power during peak time (charged at higher tariff)
- Tidal Projects
–utilises the energy of waves
