The lack of love for Hydroelectric makes me sad

Hydroelectric power is the backbone of electricity here in Brazil :P

There are only so many suitable hydro locations, and pretty much all of them are used in the developed world.

Hydroelectric and geothermal are location based, and should be a default when considering renewables as they outperform the alternatives.

Solar and Wind can be implemented (almost) anywhere.
