1) The word "energy" is superfluous: if it's hydroelectric it's obviously electrical energy, so you need only to call it "hydroelectricity". Electricity is a form of energy.
2) How it's used: to power anything needing electricity, from factories, schools, hospitals etc, to homes and the appliances in them, including your computer or 'phone charger.
Hydroelectric energy is used in the same way that other energy forms are used. The falling water rotates a turbine connected to the generator that produces the electricity. This electricity is then transported to be used to power every day household supplies.
Hydroelectric energy is used in various ways. This is mainly used as a source of producing electricity as the water flows through the turbines.
OK
Hydroelctric energy, today, is used in multiple ways. The energy harnessed by the water flowing threw the dams or reservios is transported by wires to a power plant and then transfered into different forms of energy. The energy tis is used, is used for powering home, buisness, factories, and many more places.

How is hydroelectric energy be used in homes and businesses?

What are examples of hydroelectric energy?
A water turbine dam is an example of hydroelectric energy. Hydroelectricity is an important part of the energy mix in the world.
What is the source of energy in a hydroelectric power station?
Potential energy
Can a turbine in a hydroelectric power plant makes energy?
Well, no. A turbine does not MAKE energy. It changes one form of energy to another. A Pelton turbine in a hydroelectric plant changes the weight and force of falling water to rotary mechanical energy, which is used to turn a generator. That changes mechanical energy to electrical energy. But none of that MAKES energy.
How are tidal geberators different from hydroelectric plants?
Hydroelectric plants use energy from moving water
What is hydroelectric energy or hydroelectric power?
