MyHydro has signed a memorandum of understanding with the Congolese government to develop 36 small hydro projects in a country where only about 10% of its 100 million people have access to electricity. The plants will use turbines made by Natel Energy, which have blunted blades that leave almost all the fish that pass through the turbines unharmed.
Gia talks to Amy Pempel, host of the Siemens Energy podcast, about hydro's great potential to become more sustainable and expand its reach.
