There are next to no issues as far as the electric power that is constantly by the plants, unless an alternate source is required. Nations that have huge assets of hydropower use hydroelectric power as a base energy source.

Across the beverage industry they are used to measure the density of the sugars in the solution, or specific gravity; which is what we homebrewers usually use a hydrometer for. The best thing about a refractometer is that it only takes a couple of drops of wort to get a reading! Crazy right?! You will get a reading in Brix, and to convert this to our regular specific gravity readings you simply multiply by 4; e.g. 15 Brix = 1.060 SG.
