The correct answer is: d) All of the above

Harnessing the hydropower potential of rivers in Andhra Pradesh can contribute to:

  • Clean energy generation. Hydropower is a renewable energy source that does not produce greenhouse gases or other pollutants.
  • Meeting peak power demand. Hydropower plants can be used to generate electricity during peak demand periods, when demand for electricity is high.
