heh, I guess being from BC I seem to be under the false impression that hydro is how a lot of power is generated. Forgetting that natural gas is often used to generate electricity......D'oh!!!
Hence why a Geothermal system in Alberta is somewhat pointless. You need a tonne of electricity to run one of those things and in the winter you use a lot of electricity to run the thing to keep your house warm. And the power to run that system comes from Natural Gas usually.
I should know better.
