Hydropower Potential in the Western U.S. The dataset includes design elements, installed capacity, production capability, associated costs and cost -to-benefit ratios for nearly 200 water storing and conveying structures currently maintained by the Bureau of Reclamation. These data were used to support the internal study and report for assessing hydropower capability at 70 of Reclamation's existing facilities where hydropower has not been developed. The dataset can further be leveraged to support applications designed to provide a better understanding of our hydropower production potential and resource utilization.
