Hydropower is clean because it produces very few greenhouse gases (GHG) and no other air pollutants, and it does not generate any toxic waste by-products. Hydropower is a renewable source of energy because it uses the power of a natural and renewable resource, water, without wasting or depleting it in the production of energy.
