Username pheasant plucker said: “Tidal rivers could be used, and up and running producing power in no time if there’s a will to do it.”

Another, username Tjoepstil, said: “Hydro is the only reasonably reliable and consistent renewable energy. There are a few sites worth developing.”

And username Looflirpa said: “Yes we should because in addition to providing energy, these projects would provide massive water storage during droughts and, would act as an attenuation system to help prevent flooding.”
