How can hydroelectric energy be used efficiently and or conserved?

Power generated by hydroelectric means is no different than power produced by any other means. The only way to demonstrate efficiency and conservation of energy is by keeping the lakes above the dams full of water.

How is hydroelectric energy be used in homes and businesses?
Whether the electricity is generated by conventional power stations, or hydroelectric power generation, the electricity used in homes and businesses will still be the same, and used the same.
What are some ways in which nuclear energy maybe used more efficiently and economically in the Caribbean?
I don't see any reason to think nuclear energy could be used more efficiently there than elsewhere
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.
What are some renewable energy technologies that may be used in the future?
There are so many of these where to begin. All of these may be used in the future or are now in use, solar energy, wind energy, geothermal power, and hydroelectric power.
How can hydroelectric energy be used?
by plant produced.+++Four people found that useful?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.OKHydroelctric 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 does energy is conserved in a transfermation of energy?
Energy is neither used up nor destroyed, but it is converted into something else. In that way, it is conserved.
The most common renewable energy resources used in the Nordic nations are hydroelectric and?
biothermal, hydroelectric
What energy sources below can be used up if it is not conserved?
oil
In what ways was hydroelectric energy used in the past?
Hydroelectric energy is electric energy produced with hydro(water). How the electricity is produced makes no difference on how it is used. Electricity is used for lights, electric motors, electric heat etc.
How is energy conserved when a car runs out of gas and stops?
When the car has no gas, no energy is used and no energy is produced.
How is energy conserved in an endothermic reaction?
Energy is conserved in an endothermic reaction because the heat absorbed becomes potential energy. This potential energy isn't lost energy, it's simply stored, instead of being used.
How can conservation energy be used?
Conservation energy is energy that is conserved. The energy remains conserved within the unit whether it has been turned off or closed. When the device is turned back on the energy that was contained is released and therefor uses less energy.
Hydroelectric energy not be used?
this question does not make much sence but yes hydroecectric power is used lots in many different countries. Infact the world get 19% of its energy from hydroelectric power
Which renewable energy is most widely used today?
hydroelectric power
The Grand Coulee Dam on the Columbia River produces what type of energy?
A dam is used for hydroelectric energy.
What is white coal uranium or ice?
The expression is used for th hydroelectric energy.
Where would hydroelectric energy not be used?
in states that's knid of poor an can not afford it
