Notice they didn't say what kind of power was going to be used to pump water back into lake mead.
The dam doesn't operate at 20% because of too much water going down stream, it operates at 20% capacity because they need the water more than they need the power and there isn't as much water coming into the dam due to up stream demands and less than desirable rain fall.
