2023 Hydropower Power grid 
The Verge: Energy
APRIL 24, 2024
Climate change poses new risks to the power grid, and Costa Rica has a lot of work left to do to get more solar and wind farms online. In the winter, like a six-month period from June to December, many of the hydropower plants get surplus flows. That’s when we have low wind, but we have more hydropower.
