PV, wind, batteries and hydrogen ignores hydroelectric generation making such numbers pure fantasy. Of there where any need to do so we can use them for seasonal storage simply by not using them when doing so is unnecessary.


I don't think hydro can displace hydrogen for these applications. In particular, I don't think hydro has enough energy storage capacity to provide seasonal load leveling in many places.
