Lake Region Electric Cooperative’s Post

This paper says it clearly: "Energy transition scenarios typically overlook the water footprint of the future energy system". I agree: what about the water needed for electrolysers? And how will the operations of hydropower change? Nice paper: https://buff.ly/3EJuosl

📢The National Renewable Energy Laboratory, one of CEBIP’s biggest partners just released their latest issue of their #newsletter! 📬📰 If you haven’t already, be sure to check it out to stay updated on the latest renewable energy news! #renewableenergy #newsupdates #partner #cleantech

A panel of experts testified in front of Congress, urging policymakers to understand the critical role hydropower plays in providing reliable, affordable and carbon-free energy. Click here to view the testimony: https://bit.ly/42zt3Q4

It's National Hydropower Day! I'm lucky to get to work on complex regulatory issues related to this important energy source while also considering impacts and improvements for local biological, cultural, and human resources. The work has only just begun! #hydropower #hydroday #environmentalconsulting

Hydropower Is Key to a Clean Energy Future—Here’s Why #Hydropower #CleanEnergyFuture #RenewableEnergy #SustainableSolutions #GoGreen https://hubs.la/Q021LRjT0

In 2022, 44.8 percent of the total #renewableenergy capacity in #Egypt was hydropower, representing the highest share (Statista) #hydropower #intheknow #sustainability

According to the American Public Power Association, public power accounts for 10 percent of all electricity generated in the United States each year. In 2019, nearly 40 percent of that electricity was generated from non-carbon-emitting sources such as hydropower. Not only is public power environmentally responsible, it answers directly to the needs of its Member communities. #AMEA #CommunityPowered #ValueofPublicPower

Embedded energy generation based on the UK’s high(ish) rainfall levels - discrete, reliable and effective - a boon for local villages and added power network resilience at the extremes of the system - what could be better!

🌊 Parliamentary Debate on Tidal Range: Time for Action 🌊 Following todays parliamentary debate on Tidal Range, the British Hydropower Association want to express gratitude to Mick Whitley for bringing this crucial discussion to the forefront. We would also like to thank Andrew Bowie and the Department for Energy Security and Net Zero for committing to further dialogue with the sector. Continued collaboration is vital, especially as we navigate the complexities of the Tidal Energy landscape. While DEZNZ aggressively explores Tidal Range possibilities, the urgency for action cannot be overstated. The debate underscored the need for tangible outcomes, and it's imperative that we move beyond discussions to concrete steps. Let's collectively drive the momentum towards meaningful change. 🌏💚 #TidalEnergy #ParliamentaryDebate #SustainableAction #RenewableEnergy #TimeForChange 🌊✊ Kate Gilmartin lesley trigell Alex Reading
