Notes

In 2023, India’s northern region was the region with the highest hydropower capacity, surpassing 20GW. This dominance is attributed to the region's abundant river systems and favorable geography, particularly in states like Himachal Pradesh and Uttarakhand. These areas have long been hubs for hydropower development, capitalizing on the natural topography and water resources to generate significant electricity for the nation.
