<p>Over 1000 small-scale (high or low head) hydro installations have been registered
in the Feed-in Tariff scheme since April 2010, comprising 182 megawatts of capacity
as of the end of February 2017. The Feed-in Tariff contributed to a doubling* in the
number of hydro installations in the UK between 2010 and 2015, though a smaller proportion
in terms of capacity, as none of these new sites are above 2MW in size.</p><p><em>*<a
