  • Abstract
    While today most countries face energy shortages, hundreds of thousands of megawatts of hydroelectric power remain undeveloped in Afriea, Asia, and Latin America mainly because of small local demand. Unlike fossil fuels, such energy if not used today is lost forever. Ai the same lime, no scheme has yet been found “to containerize” it for export.
