Hydropower comprises 30% of all carbon offsets projects registered under the [[Clean_Development_Mechanism_(CDM)|Clean Development Mechanism (CDM)]]. Over 1,000 hydropower projects are already registered under the CDM and another 700 are applying for registration, more than any other project type.<ref name="Carbon Market Watch: http://carbonmarketwatch.org/category/hydro-power/">Carbon Market Watch: http://carbonmarketwatch.org/category/hydro-power/
