Environmental pressure groups are opposed to any disturbance of any waterway because of the environmental impact on the river s ecosystem. 

Microgeneration technologies include small wind turbines, solar photovoltaic (PV) systems, small-scale hydro and micro CHP (combined heat and power) systems,...
