Hydropower was one of the first sources of energy used for electricity generation.  hydropower was the largest source of total annual U.S. renewable electricity generation after 2019

con-Wind energy does not produce harmful greenhouse gases or waste products. According to the American Wind Energy Association, wind reduces emissions. Wind power plants cannot produce power on demand—their output depends on how hard the wind blows.

Cons:

Non-renewable fuel, supply cannot be replaced for millennia. Emits carbon dioxide when burned. Contains 80-95% Method, a potent greenhouse gas (GHG)Explosive, potentially dangerous. Concentrated sources require long distance transmission and transportation. Energy penalties at every stage of production and distribution.

Pros-
Widely available.
Cleanest-burning fossil fuel.
Used in combination with other fuels to decrease pollution in electricity.
Made safer by adding artificial odor so leak is easily detectable.
Easy to transport.
