Advantages 
Hydropower is a fueled by water, so it's a 
clean fuel source. Hydropower doesn't 
pollute the air like power plants that burn
fossil fuels, such as coal or natural gas.
Hydropower is a domestic source of 
energy, produced in the United States.
Hydropower relies on the water cycle, which is driven by the sun, thus it's a 
renewable power source.
Hydropower is generally available as 
needed; engineers can control the flow of 
water through the turbines to produce
electricity on demand.
Hydropower plants provide benefits in addition to clean electricity. Impoundment 
hydropower creates reservoirs that offer a variety of recreational opportunities, notably fishing, swimming, and boating. Most hydropower installations are required 
to provide some public access to the reservoir to allow the public to take advantage 
of these opportunities. Other benefits may include water supply and flood control.
Disadvantages 
Fish populations can be impacted if fish cannot migrate upstream past impoundment 
dams to spawning grounds or if they cannot migrate downstream to the ocean. Upstream fish passage can be aided using fish ladders or elevators, or by trapping 
and hauling the fish upstream by truck. Downstream fish passage is aided by
diverting fish from turbine intakes using screens or racks or even underwater lights
and sounds, and by maintaining a minimum spill flow past the turbine.
Hydropower can impact water quality and flow. Hydropower plants can cause low 
dissolved oxygen levels in the water, a problem that is harmful to riparian
(riverbank) habitats and is addressed using various aeration techniques, which 
oxygenate the water. *i think it will help u*
