    That’s why we have hydro. Its a giant battery. We can also make synthetic methane.

    We absolutely can do 100% renewable.

      Hydro is great but it’s not clean it requires you to flood vast areas of land, it’s quite damaging to wildlife.

      It is also highly situation dependent, you be quiet exactly the right kind of geography in order to be able to build hydro and then you require that there is no one living in the affected area otherwise it gets very expensive very quickly assuming you’re allowed to do it at all.
