They would be in a place like Iceland or Québec where all the electricity is renewable, with avaliable energy to cover the increase in demand.
Québec can build more dams up North.
Iceland can tap more volcanic heat.
California can't even keep the power on reliably.
If aluminium-ion batteries turn-out to be a good replacement, most of the problems from lithium-ion batteries will be fixed too. ( no more fire hazard, no more scarcity problems ).
Is that really effective in generating electricity?
Yes, it is. It's even more "green" than a hydro dam, which typically generates a shit-ton of methane for a few years after completion.
Hydro is the 3rd best after Nuclear and geo-thermal, but there are literally NO more large hydro sites that would be viable. So... no more hydro power can come on line, realistically.
