The canal falls are mainly differentiated under two categories, firstly those canals which have more than 1 meter fall and the second is the canal with less than 1 meter fall. Till date a very small part of the potential is assessed by the Irrigation and Power Department. It is analysed from the available data that there are just a few falls identified which are less than 1 meter and they have the total power potential of 82.649 MW in the country. Whereas on the other hand the canal falls that are more than 1 meter are about 600 in number whose estimated total potential amounts to 751.587 MW within the country. These are just a few of the sites that are identified till date but there are thousands of sites that still are to be...
