I think you're under the misassumption that all hydroelectric power needs to produced be on land, using great big structures, such as dams, wheels, etc.

It can easily be produced off shore, using tidal power, with very little effect on the environment, or the landscape.

As someone with exquisite aesthetic taste, I proclaim these windmills ugly, wherever they are sited.

End of.
