[Malcolm Turnbull @TurnbullMalcolm]

If you combine wind and solar you mitigate intermittency, if you add hydro you fix it. Hydropower is the key to ensuring transition to zero emission energy future. So good for @iha_org and @commonwealthsec to join forces to support sustainable hydro throughout the Commonwealth.

According to @ENERGY's Hydro Vision, the U.S. could expand hydropower from 101 GW to 150 by 2050 by "upgrading existing hydroelectric resources, adding pumped storage capacity, and retrofitting nonpowered dams for hydropower" Learn more via @washingtonpost https://t.co/CgD8NfF0Do
