It seems that hydro-electric is a low carbon energy source after all, at least in higher latitudes where there is less biomass to degrade, although this takes no account of ecosystem damage. In view of the inability of solar and wind to provide the majority of our energy use without storage and the ability of hydro to meet this requirement are we missing a trick here? | |

That sounds good. There was an idea to harvest methane from reservoirs and burn it to produce electricity or heating. Ivan B.T. Lima et al. (2007) "Methane Emissions from Large Dams as Renewable Energy" | |

Emission controls on Dams, well I never! |
