Risk governance and environmental preservation in hydroelectric plant construction

Risk Governance, Hydroelectric plants, Local populationAbstract
The research seeks to analyze the risk governance mechanisms based on the elements and transversal aspects of the framework developed by the International Risk Management Committee (IRGC), with the objective of identifying occurrences of governance and environmental preservation mechanisms in hydroelectric power plant construction. For that, searches were carried out on previously selected articles, through systematic review using the Thorpe protocol. Due to this selection method, the research was limited to some geographical regions, such as some countries in Southeast Asia, the African continent, in addition to Brazil and Turkey. The study noted that in most of the articles evaluated, risk governance mechanisms were not found, which highlights a gap between the project proposals and their execution. This failure indicates a lack of assessment of possible damage to the populations affected by the constructions. Finally, it is concluded that it is essential to use risk governance in proposing hydroelectric power plant projects in order to mitigate the impacts on the inhabitants of the regions affected by the constructions.
