Re: Hydro Electric Power As a Viable Alternative?
Also just look at Seattle Washington. It gets over 84% of it's power from hydro. They have some of the lowest electric rates in the country. You can charge as many electric vehicles and plug-in hybrids as you could fit in the state off peak and still have extra energy, and all clean.
Just imagine if we all used the best resources we have in our state like Texas with wind, Arizona with Solar and Washington state with hydro. If only we could harness the hot air in Wash DC !
