* Hydroelectric Energy: uses kinetic energy of moving water to turn turbines to generate electricity. Run-of-River Storage Pumped-Storage Offshore

* Hoover Dam, U.S. * Three Gorges Dam, China * Bratsk Power Plant, Russia * Itaipu Dam, South Africa * Grand Coulee Dam, US

* Water is provided naturally = minimal pollution. * Reliable and Renewable Energy Source * 0 Power to Maximum Output * Multipurpose * No water consumption

* Displacement of animal populations * Huge Losses of forest * Destroyed habitats of animals and humans * Changes in water quality * Loss or modified fish habitat

* Provides clean and cheap (maintenance) energy * Helps to fight climate change * Collects rain water (consumption and irrigation) * Improves the air we breathe * Offers electricity, highways, industry

* Produced for 85 cents kwh * No inflating operating costs * $10m spent on research and development on hydropower * Startup costs range from 1 billion - 20 billion * Maintenance costs low

* National Environmental Policy Act * Endangered Species Act * Clean Water Act * Rivers and Harbors Act * Wild and Scenic Rivers Act

* 11 states get more than 10% of their electricity from hydropower * Only 3% of 80,000 dams actually generate power * 90%+ efficiency * Main energy source for 30+ countries * It began being used 100+ years ago.
