While I fail to see what hydro with your argument, spain doesn't have a large hydro, sitting at ~10%.
They're already at 14% of Gwh by solar, and growing fast.

Physics are different in Spain?

Energy-related carbon emissions added less than 1% in 2022 to a new high of more than 36.8 billion tons. The increase was less than expected, as renewables helped limit the impact of a global rise in coal and oil consumption. Comparatively, global emissions from energy gained by 6% in 2021.
