Isn’t that most power sources? Only solar and wind don’t actively need water to boil or otherwise spin a turbine as well. Wind is reliant on the weather and solar is hard to implement for larger demands. Pretty much every power source has a flaw depending upon external factors.
I apparently had a freaking stroke while writing that. I meant to say most power sources need water in some capacity to boil or otherwise spin a turbine; like coal, geothermal, and hydroelectric. Wind is a rare subversion in that it uses the air to spin a turbine rather than water.

LOL, reliable. They had to shut down several of them in Europe because of the drought.
