This paper presents the historical developments (since 1893) and opportunities for the future direction of water resources and hydropower in Afghanistan. The importance of water resources for hydropower energy. ••The aspiration for an energy independence country: The lesson. Rapid economic growth and changes in human civilization have led to dramatic increases in demands for water resources and electricity. Nations are therefore faced with the challeng. Afghanistan is a landlocked mountainous country that lies between South Asia and Central Asia. Afghanistan is endowed with overflowing rivers and natural resources, but effective elect. Hydroelectricity is the most widely used type of renewable energy in Afghanistan. Hydroelectric dams have become the central focus because of the availability of the necessary en.

[PDF Version]Among the three main types of hydropower schemes (run-of-river, storage, and pumped storage), the first two are common in Afghanistan. Access to and proper use of water resources are fundamental factors in the socio-economic development of a nation.
Numerous electricity-generating facilities were built and utilized throughout the country. The largest share of this capacity depends on water resources . The Naghlu hydroelectric power plant is one of the largest hydroelectric dams in Afghanistan. Construction of this dam began in January 1960, and was completed in 1968.
Furthermore, ensuring efficiency is the most important point for hydroelectric power plants in Afghanistan, which are running at efficiencies several times lower than their installed capacity.
Of these types, run-of-river type and storage type hydropower dams are used in Afghanistan, although the latter is rare. Reports indicate that more than 160 micro-hydropower plants are installed in Afghanistan, with a total usable capacity of 75.14 MW, . Among these micro-hydropower plants, 30–40% are not operational .
Afghanistan has about 123 years of experience in hydropower generation with enough potential to generate tremendous electricity from hydropower projects, not only for self-sufficiency but also to export electricity to Pakistan and India as well.
The availability of water resources in Afghanistan makes feasibility studies of hydropower dams essential; therefore, these resources have received region-wide attention. In 2015, Chinese experts surveyed the Kunar River and reported an estimated installed capacity of 1500 MW, .
