a. hydroelectricity

Reason: Hydropower is already mature and geographically constrained (most suitable sites developed), so it has very limited new capacity potential. Nonhydro renewables and natural gas are projected to grow substantially, while coal is expected to decline or at least not expand — leaving hydro with the least growth.
