6:44Now PlayingIn Sri Lanka, hydropower could be the key to ensuring a clean and stable energy supply in the future. Water weaves throughout the small island, emptying out into the ocean. There is little room to build more dams, so instead, officials plan to construct small hydropower plants to stem the growing demand for energy.
