Answer»

The correct OPTION is (d) Run-off river POWER plants

To explain I WOULD say: Run-off river power plants can be with or WITHOUT pondage. A runoff river plant without pondage has no control over river flow and uses WATER as it comes. The runoff river plant with pondage may supply base load power.
