Ken, according to the US DoE the contribution of new hydropower planned or
commissioned by US utilities under green power marketing initiatives is 0.0%
of the total (which itself is a miserable 225 MW, ie equivalent to about one
medium sized fossil burning station).

The industry itself no longer believes in dams.
