So far, hydroelectricity has and will remain to generate the world’s most renewable electricity. It will continue to play a vital role in the harvesting and use of renewable energy. Though it is at one point expected to be taken over by solar and wind energy, hydroelectricity has proven to be one of the most efficient and effective ways to gain natural energy. And even after it is taken over by wind and solar, it will continue to still be a large producer as a backup process. Pump storage can also very well be a part of the wind and solar era. The use and construction of these dams are expected to decline in the upcoming years. Places like China and Europe where many have been built are heavily slowing down their production, though, places like Africa are aiming to increase their construction of these. 

 

It also gives alot of statistics of the increases and decreases of production and energy and their effects. But I think that it would be a great idea if the countries that already have alot of these systems kind of bring their productions to a halt and maybe assist in people and resources to the places that dont have as many and are looking to build some. Also its interesting how important the pump storage system is still going to be after hydroelectricity starts to decline in use. I do think that the increase of solar and wind are good though because if they are being increased to a point that they are better and more efficient than hydroelectricity is and hydroelectricity is already generating this much energy and power, the increase in production for renewable energy will hopefully skyrocket.
