The most accurate platform for carbon emissions from water
Open Hydro has developed a platform to calculate carbon emissions from water reservoirs.
In a few clicks, you can visualise your reservoirs’ emissions, choose from different climate mitigation actions and monitor over time their performance.

01 Upload your data
02 Calculate your emissions
03 Visualise your portfolio
Alignment with international frameworks
Aligned with TCFD and the GHG Protocol
Provides recommendations and guidance to demonstrate their contributions to climate action.
Informs on the financial impacts of climate-related risks and opportunities at the project level.
Built based on the Open Hydro’s guideline
Developed through a global, multi-stakeholder development process that started in October 2021 and culminated at COP27. Stakeholders include participants from diverse geographies and areas of expertise, including hydropower utilities, financiers, research, and intergovernmental and governmental stakeholders.
Open Hydro launched the first guideline for climate mitigation reporting for hydropower asset owners and developers.
The guideline provides the much-needed clarity to report emissions, climate mitigation actions and analyse the mitigation risks and opportunities.

What do people say about Open Hydro’s work and the creation of the Hydropower Reporting Guideline on Climate-change Mitigation?
Industry-specific efforts, like Open Hydro’s initiative, are vital to improving and advancing climate-related reporting. The Task Force on Climate-related Financial Disclosures (TCFD) welcomes further progress by industry experts to develop metrics and increase organisations’ understanding of climate-related risks and opportunities to inform into potential financial impacts.
