“At times of low #energy demand, the HD #Hydro system pumps a patented fluid two and a half times denser than water uphill to underground storage tanks larger than an Olympic-size swimming pool.
When energy demand and prices rise, the fluid is released downhill and passes through turbines, generating #electricity to supply #power to the grid.”

According to a new study, Hydropower is not as clean as it seems. The researchers found that hydropower dams can emit significant amounts of methane from their reservoirs, a potent greenhouse gas. Hydropower may not be as effective as other renewable energy sources in reducing greenhouse gas emissions. #hydropower #methane #emissions https://insideclimatenews.org/news/14072023/todays-climate-hydropower-methane-clean-energy/?utm_source=flipboard&utm_content=HariTulsidas%2Fmagazine%2FArchetypes

I had no idea that #hydropower could have such a harmful impact on #climate & #climatechange. Great piece in @insideclimatenews
Have to wonder what this means for dams in #Asia, particularly all the ones built by #China upstream from rivers that flow down into South and #SoutheastAsia, or the many planned or built in #Indonesia.

#SouthAmerica’s largest floating #solarfarm is now paired with #hydropower
Sausalito, California-based #NoriaEnergy and partners developed the 1.5 megawatt (MW) floating #solar pilot project – the largest of its kind in South America – for independent power producer URRÁ.
The floating solar farm is called #Aquasol, and it’s installed at the 340 MW Urrá hydropower plant in the Sinú River basin in Córdoba, #Colombia.

In a First, Wind and Solar Generated More Power Than Coal in U.S. - Scientific American https://subscriber.politicopro.com/article/eenews/2023/06/12/in-a-first-wind-and-solar-generated-more-power-than-coal-00101319 “ #RenewableEnergy generation exceeded #coal-fired power in 2020 and 2022, but only when #hydropower was counted as a source of renewable energy, according to figures compiled by the U.S. Energy Information Administration.
This year.. #Wind and #solar sources generated a combined 252 terawatt-hours through the first five months of 2023, compared with coal output of 249 TWh,”

We're living through times of power cuts in #Hanoi and the north of #Vietnam in general. My area in town is hardly hit, well, because I'm in the expat quarter.
To cite the news:
> The northern region is facing the risk of power shortage at almost every point of time each day, according to the Ministry of Industry and Trade. Currently, most of the major hydroelectric reservoirs in the north have reached the “dead water level” or even below that.

The fuel is wood, but the spark is #ClimateChange. That's the reality we have to face. And the reality we must face is that we caused it. The next reality we have to face is we must triple-down on fixing it. We must #decarbonise. We have energy sources that are affordable today, #wind, #solar, and #hydropower and soon, perhaps, #GreenHydrogen. #tax, #transportation, and #public land #PublicHealth policies must be diverted from #petroleum to #GreenEnergy . We can do it!
