The International Energy Agency Technology Collaboration Program on Hydropower (IEA Hydro) will be holding a Kick-Off Workshop from midday on 6 -7 December 2018, in Brussels, Belgium. This will cover the work of Annex XVI Hidden Hydro. 

The overall purpose of the Kick-Off workshop is to define the scope of research and the work plan to reach the Annex Objectives, as well as confirm the participants who will contribute to the Annex. and the outcomes expected from the Annex 

Interested parties are invited to attend and participate.

 The workshop will start with a visit to a Hidden Hydro development. Workshops will have presentations by Annex participants and others on the work being undertaken on related topics covering Hidden Hydro. 

 This will be followed by a “gap analysis” to identify key research topics, required to meet the Annex objectives that are not presently being covered. The workshop will conclude with the development of a work plan and the participants' contributions to the research.
