Very remote rural locations require the supply of electricity to be carried out with an off-grid system. The off-grid rural electrification can be developed by fossil fuels power plants or local renewable energy sources. The fossil fuel price, the long distance of fossil energy sources, and the environmental impacts make fossil fuel plants no longer be a priority to be developed in Indonesia. The Renewable energy generation provides the best alternative for the electricity supply. Micro-hydro power (MHP) is one of the many renewable energy power plants that has been built massively in the last 2 decades. Sustainability is a significant problem in micro-hydro power development in Indonesia. This paper aims to formulate a set of indicators and evaluation criteria for micro-hydro power sustainability assessment. The study begins with a literature review related to micro-hydro power sustainability both in terms of the power plant operations sustainability and sustainable development to identify the sustainability indicators and evaluation criteria. The expert judgment is needed to validate a set of sustainability indicators and evaluation criteria. The results of the paper review and expert opinion were obtained 54 indicators and evaluation criteria of micro-hydro power sustainability, in 5 dimensions: technical, economic, social, institutional, and environmental. Fifty-four indicators and evaluation criteria can be used to evaluate the micro-hydro power sustainability index.
