The UK will need an increasing amount of dispatchable energy supply to balance the electricity grid as it adds more renewables such as wind and solar. The country’s hydro reserves have the potential to meet this requirement, providing a reliable source of supply to generate electricity and meet demand when it’s needed the most. The government is facing calls to provide more incentives to attract investment and boost the sector’s development.
