Four Native American tribes, two states and the U.S. Government have agreed to work together to replace the energy now produced by hydroelectric dams. The U.S. Congress could then vote to breach the dams to restore native fish populations. #solar #technology #renewableenergy

Reading the smoke signals Last week we demonstrated declining reservoir levels caused by El Niño and showed the consequences for hydropower generation. We also briefly mentioned what was taking up the slack. Here, we go into that in more, graphic, detail. Guess what? Petro-despised fossil fuel-generated power rises to fill the gap. The matrix The lead graph tells the whole story. We consolidate XM’s daily generation data by “resource” or source or plant if you will giving daily generation by technology group. Here we also consolidate “Self-generation” and “Dispatched” or centrally managed or “Utility” (if you will) and any other subcategories to get the major technology types. We take a 7-day Moving Average (aka MA(7)) because the weekly “seasonality” is quite pronounced and the eye tends to be drawn to that movement instead of what we want to talk about: the shift between categories... #renewableenergy #renewablenergy #renewablepower #energyindustry #epowercolombia #energy

Micro hydroelectric power in Sicily: the energy production of early XIX sec. and the future opportunities

More than 4000 hydroelectric dams have been built in the United States since the late 19th century. They range in size from about 100 kW to the mammoth 6809 MW Grand Coulee Dam in the state of Washington. Hydropower represents about six percent of all-time additions to electric generation capacity from all sources. For the first half of the twentieth century, hydropower and coal were the dominant sources of electricity generation.

What are the problems with Hydroelectricity? Looking back to when we started the Pico Stream concept in this video - we are now investing in the reality and accelerating towards our launch! #hydropower #hydroelectric #alternativeenergy #greenenergy #sustainableenergy #greenhenry

Why does the hydropower industry prioritize HYDROVISION? Hear their perspectives. Thousands of members of the global hydroelectric power industry prioritize attending HYDROVISION International each year, to get vital training and network with peers. If you’re considering attending this event in 2024, we know you would rather hear about the value of the event from the people who attend. Below are just a few perspectives shared by 2023 attendees, to help http://ow.ly/4uJ9104U94c

Check out our article on four exhibitors looking forward to Clean Currents 2024 from our September issue. Clean Currents is the National Hydropower Association ’s (NHA) main annual conference, held by the hydropower industry, for the hydropower industry. As the hydropower business looks forward to this year’s conference, which will be held October 7–10 in Portland, Oregon, we speak with representatives of four companies that will be exhibiting there about their business, the market signals they’re seeing, and the value they get from attending Clean Currents. https://bit.ly/3LUtxIR #Hydro #HydroLeader #NHA #NationalHydropower #CleanCurrents #CC2024 #Hydropower #RenewableEnergy

Hydropower, also known as hydroelectricity, harnesses the kinetic energy of flowing water to generate electricity for our homes and businesses. 💧⚡ What are the benefits of hydropower? 1️⃣ Almost 25% of Ontario’s electricity is generated by hydropower. 2️⃣ Hydropower is a clean source of renewable energy!

As people turn up their fans and AC during heat waves, demand on the power grid can soar to record levels. Without the massive generating capacity of hydroelectric dams, and their ability to readily convert water into energy, there wouldn’t be enough dependable power to meet those increased electricity demands.
