Hydroelectric power is better than fossil fuels because it is renewable. The water cycle ensures that there will always be water flowing downstream to turn turbines. Fossil fuels take millions of years to create.
Hydroelectric power is about 90% efficient while fossil fuels are about 60% efficient.
they don't burn fossil fuels
Yes. If we can use more electricity from dams (hydroelectic power), we conserve fossil fuels. I also note that while hydroelectric is generally better than using fossil fuels, there are a number of disadvantages to hydroelectric power, including loss of land and negative impact on the environment when large dams are constructed. See related links.
Two alternatives are Hydroelectric and Geothermal.
Wind, solar, water (as in hydroelectric dams), and Biofuel (corn-based ethanol) are major alternatives to fossil fuels.
No, hydroelectric power is produced from the movement of water spinning a turbine. Fossil fuels (coal, oil and natural gas) produce energy by burning.
Hydroelectric power is an alternative to production of electricity produced by fossil fuels
water is used for hydroelectric power it is not used for burning fossil fuels
Fossil fuels are worst than hydroelectric power because when they are burnt to harness their energy, they release CO2, a greenhouse gas, this enhances the effects of global warming and as once fossil fuels have been mined and burnt, they are gone and will not reacumilate again for millions of years whereas hydroelectricity doesn't burn any carbon, releasing no CO2 and hydroelectricity's original source of power will never run out, making it much more efficient.
yes it is
Oil, coal, and natural gas are the three main types of fossil fuels.
Solar power is better than fossil fuels for several reasons. Solar power is a renewable energy source that produces no greenhouse gas emissions during operation, unlike fossil fuels which contribute to air pollution and climate change. Additionally, solar power has a lower environmental impact in terms of water usage and land degradation compared to fossil fuel extraction and combustion.
