With growing concerns about global warming, climate change, and social progress, there has been a significant increase in support and concern for clean energy solutions. Among them, the hydropower industry has been the focus of attention of governments around the world. Many countries started hydropower early, establishing comprehensive industrial frameworks and policies. Moreover, emerging countries are rapidly enhancing technology to close the development gap. Together, these efforts have contributed to the sustainable development of the hydropower industry. Against this background, this paper examines the progress and future prospects of the hydropower industry in China and the United States. Through reviewing the policies and industrial patterns of the two countries, it can seen that the development potential of the hydropower industry in the two countries is huge, and each has its own characteristics. Finally, this paper advocates that China and the United States work together to achieve sustainable development goals in hydropower.
