Hydroelectricity is produced by water flower through water turbines in the dam creating electricty. Thus hydro-power.
Dams can be used to produce hydro electric power
Dams
Hydro power is using the power of water (dams, rivers, oceans) to generate electricity. The uses of electricity are everywhere, powering factories, offices, homes, kitchens and living rooms. To produce electricity
Hydro-electric power (the power of moving water and gravity in dams, rivers, tides and ocean waves) produces electricity only.
Jesus Christ of Nazareth
Hydroelectric power
Dams are an example of hydro electric energy because they produce energy while water going through it
water wheels, dams, and waterfalls
Yes, hydro come from the Greek word for water, and wave power is classed as hydro power. Other kinds of hydro power are produced from the movement of water through dams, tides and rivers.
Sunlight is renewable. With solar panels you can use it to produce electricity.Wind power is similar.Water power (hydro-electric dams, tidal power, wave power) is similar.Boiling water from under the ground is renewable, too.
Hydro power is expensive up front in a large scale but eventually pays for itself. This is particularly true with hydroelectric dams which power large areas.
There are many river dams, many are built to create hydro power.
