HOW CAN WE GET WATER POWER?
Hydropower, or hydropower, is a renewable energy source that generates energy through a dam or diversion structure to convert the natural flow of a river or other water. Hydropower depends on a continuous, continuous charge system for the water cycle to generate electricity, using fuel — water — which can be reduced or eliminated from the process. There are many types of hydropower systems, although all are powered by kinetic energy flowing water as it flows downstream. Electricity uses wind turbines and generators to convert that kinetic energy into electricity, which is then fed into a power grid for power in homes, businesses, and industries.
HOW DOES Electricity Produced On HYDROPOWER PLANTS?
Because hydropower uses water to generate electricity, plants are often found near water sources. The force found in moving water depends on both the flow of water and the change in elevation — also known as the head — from one point to another. The greater the flow and the higher the head, the more electricity can be generated.
At the plant level, water flows through a pipe — also known as a penstock — and surrounds the blades in the wind turbine, which rotates the generator to the final output. Many hydroelectric power stations operate in this way, including river running systems and pumped storage systems.
