Co-sponsored by the UNDP and UNIDO as well as the government of China, the International Network on Small Hydro Power (IN-SHP) was created in 1994 and had its headquarters - the International Centre on Small Hydro Power (IC-SHP) inaugurated in 1998. IC-SHP is located on the southwest bank of the beautiful West Lake, Hangzhou, China. Since the foundation in 1994, IC-SHP has developed a network of more than 330 members from over 70 countries all over the world. It has created a new pattern of international “triangular” technical and economic cooperation between developing countries, developed countries and international organisations to promote SHP development worldwide.
