If this was true we wouldn't have any dams, the market would see to it pretty quickly. It's not, at least not yet.

- OJFord 3y agoWe wouldn't have any new dams, or do significant work on them, maybe. However there's one approved for Scotland (Coire Glas) to do 30GWh of storage, generating 1.5GW. UK wide total storage capacity currently 24GWh apparently, so it absolutely competes. Maybe this one just wasn't cost effective to modernise/repair, the geography would never allow much, or cheaper to start from scratch, or something.
