Hydropower can have several disadvantages, including ecological disruption, as dam construction can alter river ecosystems and harm aquatic wildlife. It can also lead to the displacement of communities living near rivers, impacting their livelihoods and cultural heritage. Additionally, hydropower generation is dependent on water availability, making it less reliable during droughts or periods of low rainfall. Finally, the initial costs of building dams and infrastructure can be significant, and there are concerns about the potential for catastrophic failures.
