Abstract
This study organized in a framework of five criteria (factors) along with associated sub-criteria as well as embedded elements and five alternatives (scale of Hydropower). Subjective value judgment, based on questionnaire survey is used for pair-wise comparison following standard AHP procedure. It can be concluded that medium hydropower is most appropriate and it is closely followed by big hydropower schemes in ranking. Such prioritization will help to develop an innovative hydropower development strategy for the country and will also help to review the recent strategy followed. Though, this research was executed for academic purposes, it could be also useful for all stakeholders in general and decision maker in particular involved in hydropower sector.
