What is the effect of the sun on hydropower?

The sun plays an indirect role in hydropower generation by driving the water cycle. Solar energy heats the Earth's surface, causing water to evaporate and form clouds. When the clouds release rain, it replenishes water in rivers and lakes, which is then used to generate hydropower. So, the sun's impact on hydropower is in enabling water resources to be available for use in hydropower generation.
