Abstract
Pico hydro is an alternative energy source for scattered and isolated households which lack access to the national grid or other community based energy systems. The use of pico hydro technology carries with it important economic, environmental and social benefits, for women in particular. This paper discusses about the existing policy environment for the promotion of this simple technology within Sri Lanka.
